It has been a good year for blackberries. Can I cut down the fruited canes now? It's a cultivar called Lock Tyne. Thanks

Did you mean Loch Ness?
Either way, yes cut the canes that have fruited this year right back to the ground.
Then tie-in the canes that have grown this year. They will bear fruit next year.

Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

Remove all the canes that have fruited this year and tie-in the new canes.
Same procedure every year.
I did that with my Waldo blackberry about 2 weeks ago.
