Bad tasting raspberries

Ajenick

Hello, I’m looking for advice on bad tasting raspberries. The plants and fruit look fine however they taste like metal! I put well rotted manure on them in spring and other than water during the hot weather, I have left them to their own devices. What has gone wrong?

with thanks.

I’m afraid I dont, they came with the house! I’ve worked out they are autumn fruiting as they are just ripening now. Perhaps need to rip them out and start again?
