In order for raspberries to develop properly and bear fruit well, they need to be watered in a timely manner.

But not every day a little bit, but abundantly and at certain periods.

Many gardeners make the mistake of choosing moderate daily watering.

Thus, moisture permeates only the top layer of soil, and the roots are left without nutrition.

Experts recommend watering raspberries less often, but more abundantly, so that the water reaches a depth of 25-35 centimeters.

The frequency of watering and the required volume of water depend mainly on weather conditions.

But it is also necessary to take into account the properties of the soil and its moisture capacity.

Watering is especially important during periods of flowering and active fruit growth.

We must not forget about it after each berry picking.
