Raspberry is a popular garden crop that produces very tasty fruits.
However, the plant has a serious drawback. We are talking about the tendency of the representative of the rose family to grow quickly.
How can we prevent this dangerous process and prevent raspberries from displacing other crops?
It turns out that the desired result is achieved with incredible ease.
It is enough to choose suitable "neighbors" for raspberries. There are two interesting options.
Sorrel
This plant will quickly enter into competition with raspberries for moisture and important components.
In other words, sorrel will stop the growth of fruit bushes.
However, to achieve the desired effect, the gardener must ensure that the width of the sorrel plantings is at least 50 centimeters.
In addition, sorrel itself can begin to grow very quickly. Weed periodically, cut off flower stalks and do not allow new plants to appear.
Beans
The root system of this plant is a source of microorganisms that saturate the soil with nitrogen.
And nitrogen is a micronutrient that helps reduce the risk of raspberry overgrowth.
For reference
Common raspberry is a subshrub; a species of the genus Rubus of the Rosaceae family.
