    No idea about blueberry and choke berry as I have never grown either.

    I would say that, if you can, you should lift the rasps and blackberries out of their pots, give them a shake to get rid of some of the old soil, add extra new soil to the pots, and then place them back in the pots so that their root/stem levels are planted at the same depth as before.
