    An autumn fruiting raspberry ?

    I have some joan j,i know to cut them down to the ground early next year,my question is,is it because,if they were to be cut down now { early autumn},will it make them want to send up new shoots to early,if not what is the reasoning behind it,if its for frost protection,would a covering of fleece or mulch do the trick,i do not want to cause them distress,as they are really nice and gave me a wonderful crop this year,still getting the odd smaller ones,thanks in advance peeps,

    I love Joan J as well! I cut them down any time from now til Spring - they do not need protection from frost, whenever you cut them back
