I did red and black rasperries and strawberries.

I have no idea what the problem was. I’m hoping to try again, and with better luck next year.

Eh, then all I can do is give you some general advice. Well drained soil, mix in sand if you need to, water daily and cage the canes so they have some support.

We use the black ground cloth to keep the weeds away and water no more then 15 minutes a day with a drip hose.

Raspberries won’t do here either, so maybe it was the heat. Same thing with strawberries—you have to make sure you get heat tolerant varieties. Most blackberries will do, and some are thornless. :) Blueberries do great in our acid, sandy soil, and they’ll live a long time. Same with figs. Good luck!
