How to properly water raspberries after harvesting: not all summer residents know
It is important to remember that raspberries need to be watered not only before and during fruiting.
After harvesting, it is important for the bush to recover by receiving the proper amount of moisture.
This will generally have a positive effect on the plant's development and health. But watering must be done correctly.
What subtleties should not be forgotten?
After harvesting, there is no need to water the raspberries according to a specific schedule: you can safely give up this habit. You just need to periodically inspect the soil in the raspberry patch after fruiting.
As soon as it becomes clearly dry, watering should be carried out.
During the rainy season, it is especially important to focus on the condition of the soil, since excess moisture is extremely harmful to the plant.
Also, do not forget that the final watering of the bush is not far off. It is customary to carry it out before the first frosts.
For this purpose, it is customary to take thirty liters of water for each square meter of raspberry. This amount of moisture is quite enough for the bushes to survive the winter well, without experiencing a moisture deficit.
After watering, it is worth using a mulch layer.
