If you want the raspberries to grow and give you a bountiful harvest of sweet and large berries year after year, you need to pay attention to where exactly the bushes are located.
You shouldn't plant seedlings in places where an old bush grew. The soil will be too depleted.
It is believed that the best place for planting is soil that has already had a good rest from berry bushes, for example, former vegetable beds.
Before planting, you need to add fertilizer. Decomposed compost or rotted manure will do.
Experts recommend planting plants at a depth of 5 cm from the root collar.
As soon as the raspberries are planted and watered, you need to pay attention to the shoots. They should be shortened.
You should also not forget about mulch, which will save the roots of the crop from drying out, temperature changes and other problems.
It is better to use straw, compost or peat for this.
