In the article you will learn where and how exactly to plant raspberries.
Where is the best place to plant raspberries
For planting, choose a place on the southeast or southwest side of the house.
However, remember that the bush loves loose and fertile soil.
Well-drained soil has good breathability, is able to retain moisture, and nourish the roots with oxygen and nutrients.
Raspberries will produce a good harvest only with sufficient sunlight.
However, scorching sunlight is also harmful, as the berries will literally burn in the bright sun.
How to plant raspberries
Plant raspberries in rows. Plant raspberries at the level of the roots, trying not to bury them.
A slight recess of 1-2cm is allowed.
You can add fertilizer to the bottom of the hole.
This can be compost, rotted manure or any organic matter. For example, small pieces of wood, paper, plant debris.
When planting raspberries on organic residues, the largest and longest decomposing ones should be planted first.
Alternate each layer of organic matter with a layer of soil.
