The first third of summer is a very important period for raspberries.
At this time, the summer resident must follow certain rules for watering the plant.
Ignoring these recommendations can result in a serious reduction in yield.
But if June watering of raspberry bushes is carried out without errors, then there will be no problems with the harvest.
Do you want to pick raspberries by the bucketful in the future? Then follow the rules that were reminded by the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", scientist-agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
Frequency of watering
If there is little precipitation, then raspberries should be watered once every 2 days.
And if the first summer month turns out to be hot, then the procedure should be done daily.
Volume of water used
Each bush should receive 3 watering cans of liquid.
Watering in small portions
Don't try to use all the water at once. Water the soil gradually and in stages.
Ignoring this rule can result in the soil being poorly saturated with moisture.
Warm water
Using cold water when watering raspberries is a gross mistake that will certainly lead to the development of dangerous diseases in the crop.
You can water the plant (or rather, the soil underneath it) only with warm water from a barrel standing in the open air.
Loosening
Having completed the procedure of watering the raspberries at the roots, the gardener must loosen the soil.
But it is important not to overdo it: the depth of “processing” of the soil cover should not be more than seven centimeters, otherwise problems with the roots will arise.
Earlier , summer residents were told how to get rid of aphids and slugs using soda.
