How and what to feed raspberries with in spring
Spring care for raspberry bushes includes removing covers from the bushes, installing trellises, fertilizing, watering, loosening the soil, mulching, pruning, and preventing pests and diseases.
In April, when the air and soil temperatures become warm enough, you can begin to feed the raspberries.
For this purpose, you can use both organic and mineral fertilizers.
For example, urea, ammonium nitrate, humus, peat, ash, superphosphate, mullein or bird droppings are good for fertilizing berries.
How to feed raspberries with ash
Gardeners recommend adding ash in large quantities, preferably once every 2-3 years.
Ash is an effective organic fertilizer, as it contains mainly potassium, as well as phosphorus, magnesium and calcium.
All of these are important nutrients for raspberries.
