In April, raspberries need to be fed with nitrogen.

Urea or ammonium nitrate will do.

For each square meter you will have to use 40 grams of fertilizer. You can make a solution of 10 liters of water and 30 grams of ammonium nitrate.

The product should be poured under the roots of the bushes.

But these are not all the procedures that need to be carried out in April.

It is also necessary to treat the plants against diseases before the buds open. A 3% Bordeaux mixture is perfect for this.

In May, you will have to add potassium-phosphorus products. You can pay attention to wood ash (1 glass per 10-liter bucket of water) or potassium magnesium sulfate (30 grams per square meter). You can supplement everything with 25 grams of superphosphate.

It is important to remember that fertilizers must be used according to the instructions, otherwise there is a risk of seriously harming the plants.
