Raspberries are delicious as in fresh, and in the form of jam or jam. Moreover, it is very healing berry... In this article, we will consider whether it is possible to plant different varieties of raspberries next to each other on the site.
It's no secret that raspberries are a very tasty, delicate and aromatic berry that almost everyone loves. Raspberries are rightfully considered the queen of the garden, as well as an effective assistant in the fight against colds, because jam made from its fruits or products from leaves help well with fever and fever. In addition, raspberry rhizomes are used, which help to cope with a dry and painful cough.
There are several types of raspberries, namely:
white or yellow-fruited;
- black;
- repairing.
Note that blackberry looks very much like a blackberry, but it differs significantly in taste. Compared to red and white raspberries, this variety has the following advantages:
- Resistant to dry climates.
- Fast and simultaneous ripening of all fruits on the bush.
- Lack of basal processes.
- Propagation by seeds, cuttings.
V recent times Raspberry remontant is very popular. It bears fruit twice a year, and the second time occurs during the last summer month.
Many people ask the question: is it possible or not to plant different varieties of raspberries next to each other? Experienced gardeners do not recommend this. Although the cross-pollination of raspberries does not affect its seeds in any way, but when planted nearby, the root processes will intertwine with each other, which is why after a year or two you will have a mixed raspberry tree. To prevent this from happening, you can plant only black raspberries next to it, since it does not have basal processes. All other varieties should be planted away from the red raspberry bush.
Berry care
Since this berry reproduces mainly due to the root system, it is necessary to plant the fruits in rows, the distance between which does not exceed 1.8 m.And the distance between the bushes in a row should be at least 0.7 m. Thin and damaged stems must be cut, leaving 7 strong shoots. If the shoots are not removed, then the yield will noticeably decrease. At the beginning of spring, the stem should be cut at a height of 150-160 cm.
Every year in the middle of autumn, you need to feed the raspberries. To do this, use organic feed at the rate of 2 buckets of peat per raspberry bush, using saltpeter or urea in the amount of 100 g. If the shoots grow poorly, then in the middle of spring, a bucket of organic feeding should be poured under each bush.
Note that after fertilizing, it is necessary to loosen the soil around the bushes. The depth of loosening should be from 8 to 10 cm. So that the roots do not grow much, you can build an obstacle in the form of a sheet of iron, buried along the perimeter for the entire width of the bush.
Raspberry Care Tips:
- Despite the fact that raspberries are not the most whimsical plant, caring for her is still necessary so that she gives a large and tasty harvest.
- It is not necessary to water raspberries constantly, except in summer, if there is a severe drought. The main watering occurs at the time of laying the growth points of the shoots.
- Raspberries are susceptible to various fungal and viral diseases. If you carry out the insecticide treatment on time, you can protect the bushes from pests.
As you can see, it is not enough just to plant raspberries in order for them to give a tasty and ripe harvest. You also need to take care of her, for which she will thank you with juicy and healthy fruits.
Most gardeners try to plant young raspberries in the fall, but should you do this? Let's take a look at the advantages of such a planting and the technology for carrying out this agrotechnical event.
Why is it better to plant raspberries in the fall
Planting raspberries in the fall is considered more appropriate, since the seedlings take root better and get used to environment, and in the spring they begin to actively develop, without wasting energy on adaptation.
Compliance with the rules of planting work and successful wintering allow you to harvest the first crop the next year.
In the first year after planting, it is necessary to cut off the fruiting shoots. Raspberries planted in spring do not have time to take root properly, because with the onset of heat inside the plant, an active movement of juices begins, aimed at the growth of the green part, and the roots simply do not have vitamins left. And the bad root system in turn negatively affects overall development.
Having planted raspberries in a timely manner in the fall, gardeners give them the opportunity to take root before the cold weather. Also worth noting climatic conditions during this period of time - in most regions of Russia prevails 
not hot and wet weather ideal for root formation. V southern regions long warm autumn with precipitation and mild winter, therefore, it is better for the inhabitants of these areas to plant raspberries in September, since the plant is moisture-loving and does not like too much high temperatures typical for summer. Important! V middle lane necessary Special attention devote the wintering of young seedlings, so as not to destroy the raspberry tree.
A small layer of snow on raspberries will provide good protection from freezing temperatures, but snowdrifts can destroy all plantings. Often covered seedlings begin to rot, so take care of creating a space with dry air in advance.
Only in the north, spring planting is considered preferable to autumn planting, this is due to the inability to guess exactly when frosts will come. In addition, this region is distinguished by snowless winters and severe frosts that destroy even adult plants. But if you do not delay planting raspberries and create good conditions for wintering, you can not be afraid that the seedlings will not take root.
Gardeners often wonder when to plant raspberries in the fall. It is believed that the best time falls in late September - early October. Although according to by and large a raspberry tree with a closed root system does not care what month it will be planted, the main thing is to have time 14 days before the soil freezes.
However, for the future correct development and high yield it is important to consider the cycles of plant development. So the planting of bush raspberries should take place after the end of the growing season, when replacement buds appear on the root neck. At the same time, the growth rate of the bush will decrease and foliage will begin to fall off. Have early varieties this time begins in September, and remontant raspberries develop until the beginning of November.
Unfortunately, the rules of maturation are observed only experienced gardeners taking cuttings from their own bushes for propagation. But beginners have to be content. purchased seedlings that do not always meet all the requirements. To grow such raspberries, you need to work harder and use supplemental nutrients. When buying cuttings, pay attention to them appearance and frost resistance. They must have from one to three ripe stems, 7 millimeters in thickness and a well-developed root system.
Important! In non-southern regions, it is better to postpone the planting time of raspberries with low winter hardiness until spring.
Purchased seedlings with open roots you need to plant as soon as possible or at least wrap in wet cloth to prevent drying out.
How to choose a pick-up location
Having found out what timing of planting raspberries in the fall is considered the best, it is time to choose a place for 
raspberry. This crop grows well in light soil with a sufficient amount of fertilizer. If there are several types of soil in the garden, then it is recommended to plant seedlings in small groups. This activity will provide an increase in the total fruiting period of raspberries.
Also, when choosing a place, you need to take into account how comfortable the raspberries grown there will be in the coming years. Shrubs should develop freely and not interfere with each other.
Take care that there are no groundwater and low areas with cold air nearby. For raspberries, the southern side of the garden is preferable and the presence of a number of small buildings that protect from the wind.
The rows of this culture are usually planted from north to south, so that the extreme bushes serve additional protection and all the plants were getting enough light.
Planting raspberries
Before planting raspberries properly in the fall, you need to prepare seedlings, especially if they are dug out of your own garden. Choose only young cuttings coming from the roots of the parent bush. They should be tight and well formed. Can be turned into planting material a whole bush, dividing it into parts, leaving one shoot at a time.
Important! Before the planting procedure itself, soil preparation and raspberry pruning should be carried out. Fertilizers, humus and vitamins are introduced into the ground. And the seedlings are cleaned of foliage and pruned so that the plant is no higher than 30-35 centimeters in height.
Pruning will certainly speed up the process of plant survival, and in the future will allow it to actively develop and bear fruit. Otherwise, all forces will be spent on adaptation, and not on the formation of shoots. Growers recommend making a special root nutrient mixture by mixing mullein, clay and root.
Itself step-by-step instruction for planting garden raspberries in the fall is no different from the spring procedure.
- Usually raspberries are planted in rows, if there are several varieties in the raspberry, then there should be 4 meters of free space between them. In a limited area, the distance can be reduced to one and a half meters.
- Make special holes, the depth of which is about 30 centimeters, every 60 centimeters.
- Bulk humus and other nutrients are added to the hole.
- Having placed the roots horizontally, cover them with earth without tamping. Important! Don't bury the plant too much in the ground, and also make sure the roots don't point up.
- Spill enough water over the planted shrubs.
This crop responds well to soil mulching. The free land around the bushes is covered with sawdust or hay, which helps to retain moisture inside and slow down the growth of weeds. V winter time organic matter decays and provides additional nutrition.
Wintering of a young raspberry
Having figured out how raspberries are planted in the fall, you can take care of preparing for the first winter. Before the onset of cold weather, the seedlings need to be bent, laying on top of each other. Be sure to tie them with twine or fasten them closer to the ground with homemade hooks. They will remain in this position until spring. Important! Perform the procedure in the afternoon, when the shoots bend easily.
It is not enough just to press the cuttings to the ground and forget about them until spring. Make sure that in winter period the raspberry tree was covered with snow, sprinkle it in empty places. Raspberry seedlings even in winter require Fresh air so be sure to knock down the ice crust.
In fact, the answer to the question of how to plant young raspberries in the fall is quite simple. Need to take care of the right choice seedling and prepare the soil.
The raspberry bush is an integral part of any summer cottage. After all delicious berry can be enjoyed not only fresh in summer, but also in the form of jams and preserves in winter. But, despite the prevalence of the plant, amateur gardeners continue to wonder about, in the spring, how to care for the seedling, what to fertilize, and so on.
Selection of raspberry seedlings
Raspberry is not a particularly whimsical plant, but both the planting site and the seedling itself matter. Shoots should be of medium thickness. It is better to give the advantage to a thin stem. should be well developed, fibrous, with white shoots, with a few mature superficial stems.
When transporting a seedling, its open root system should be wrapped with a wet or damp cloth. The roots should not be outdoors for a long time. It is also undesirable for a long-term content of wet planting material in plastic bag or a bag. This degrades the quality of the plant, spoils the roots, which begin to turn brown and rot.
Raspberry seedlings are cut before planting, leaving no more than 35 centimeters.
Soil and location: preparing for planting
Raspberries can grow pretty much anywhere, but they need sunshine and light to bear fruit abundantly. And since this plant is perennial, the location should be thought out. Seating in partial shade by the fence is considered favorable. It is desirable that the sun warms her more after dinner. Planting black raspberries along the fence is undesirable. This species prefers quiet places protected from the wind, for example, somewhere in the corner of the garden.
When preparing the place, you should weed the area from perennial weeds. Planting seedlings should not be where potatoes or tomatoes have just grown. Peas, beans, cucumbers, and zucchini are good predecessors.
The plant has superficial roots, therefore, before planting raspberries in the spring, the earth should not be deeply loosened. However, root drainage is required. For spring planting, the soil is prepared in the fall: it is dug up, fertilized. Raspberry gives preference to fertile, light loamy soils. Ground water should not lie close. You can plant raspberries in sandy or sandy loam soil. But every year, such a place will require organic fertilizer and regular watering.
When to plant raspberries in spring: timing
Planting dates for raspberries vary. The optimal period is considered to be the second decade of March and the beginning of April. During this period, the plant still does not have time to wake up after winter, the juices are still not moving, which means that planting or transplanting the seedling will survive easier. Gardeners of the northern regions, where a wet and prolonged spring, prefer this particular period. Before planting raspberries in the spring, you should check the weather forecast and make sure that there is no expected in the next three weeks. sub-zero temperature, especially at night.
In the middle lane, the planting time of raspberries does not really matter, the climate is favorable to any choice. For the southern regions, where spring passes quickly and hot dry days come, planting raspberry bushes in spring will not be the best option, since the young seedling will quickly bloom the buds, and the new roots will not have time to grow yet. If there is not enough moisture, the seedling will either take root for a long time or die.
Common ways to plant raspberries
Raspberries can be planted:
- in rows;
- bushes;
- in the container.
The ordinary method is preferred by most gardeners. He, in turn, is divided into trench and pit. Planting trenches are prepared three weeks before planting. How to properly plant raspberries in a trench way? The site is marked with stakes, a cord is pulled, a trench is dug about forty centimeters deep, half a meter wide. The preferred direction for the trench is from northeast to southwest.
The bush method involves the arrangement of bushes at a distance of one and a half meters from each other. Within four years, the raspberry bush will have at least ten developed shoots.
They resort to planting in containers if the size of the garden is not impressive, but you want to plant a lot. The size of the container should be 50 x 50 centimeters. The bottom of the container is cut off, and it is dug into the pit. In this position, the growth does not really grow, and the free space can be safely used for planting another culture.
Planting a raspberry seedling
Before planting raspberries in the soil in spring, add ash to it, which improves the taste of berries, rotted manure or compost. Do not forget about mineral fertilizers, for example, superphosphate. Nitrogen fertilizers should be avoided when planting. They impair rooting, development and wintering of the plant.
The place of the future planting, whether it is a pit or a trench, must be watered abundantly. If there were good rains before, then it is not worth watering the holes, you just have to compact the soil well around the bush with your feet and sprinkle with mulch from sawdust and manure.
Before planting raspberries in the spring, the roots of the seedling should be dipped in a solution of mullein and clay. Before planting in the ground, the roots should be well spread so that they do not bend upwards.
The root collar, the place where the stem passes into the roots, should be at ground level after planting. Its strong deepening will lead to slow growth, if you leave the neck above the ground, then the root buds, from which new raspberry shoots are formed, will dry out.
Trellis
Planting and caring for raspberries requires a garter. To do this, trellises are installed in the raspberries. Their role can be performed iron pipes, wooden or reinforced concrete posts with a height of at least two meters. In the case of long rows, additional posts should be installed in the row, every four meters. A four-millimeter galvanized wire is stretched between the posts. It can be replaced with any other wire that does not bend under strong tension. The first row at a height of one meter from the ground is suitable for seedlings of the first year. In total, you will need to pull two or three rows of wire with an intermediate distance of sixty centimeters.
Fertilizing a raspberry seedling
Raspberry feeding is carried out not only every year, but also immediately after planting. After all, the root system, which has fallen into a new place, needs not only to grow, but also to provide the leaves with everything necessary. Promote the rooting of raspberries organic fertilizers- 12 kilograms per 1 m², phosphorus - 20 grams per 1 m² or superphosphate - 100 grams per 1 m², potassium sulfate- 50 grams per 1 m².
For further growth, the seedling needs saltpeter or a 5% solution of chicken manure, urea, phosphorus, superphosphate, potassium or potassium sulfate. Phosphorus can be added every three years in the future. In the spring, before the first loosening, are applied nitrogen fertilizers right under the bush. Humus or compost is poured in in the spring after the first loosening. Organic matter in the form of mulch can be applied either in the fall or in the spring. Feeding raspberries should be done every year, this will provide them with good growth and a high yield.
Seedling care after planting
Post-plant care for seedlings consists in sufficient watering... Watering is done from the expense: a bucket for three to four seedlings. After that, the hole around the bush is sprinkled with dry soil. Planting and caring for raspberries requires mulch, which can be applied both in the aisle and in the rows. Gardeners use manure, straw, peat, compost as mulch, or it removes the need to cultivate the soil and helps to retain moisture in it, prevents the soil from overheating during periods of summer heat, and promotes the development of a powerful root system. If you mulch only the rows, then the aisles in the fall should be dug up.
For areas with a lack of rainfall, use as mulch plastic wrap... It spreads in a row, the edges are buried in the soil. Cuts in the film are made over each seedling, then it moves slightly apart so that the shoots break through.
The first wintering of raspberries
For raspberries better protection from frost, strong winds and temperature drops will be a snowdrift. In order for the snow to cover the plant, in late September or early October, while the stems are flexible, they are bent to the ground, placing it at a distance of about thirty centimeters from the surface of the earth. Falling snow will cover the stems, protect them from low temperatures, winds and sunbeams. If there is little snow, then it should be collected from free areas and sprinkled on raspberries. In February-March, when the snow begins to melt, the stems that have appeared should be covered from the sun's rays.
If the variety is frost-resistant, then it is not worth bending down and covering it with snow, but it must be tied in a dense sheaf around the stake, which will prevent the effects of wind and drying out of tissues. The stems should be freed after the snow melts.
Raspberry is a bush common in all regions of the country. After planting, only the first year will be difficult. But, following simple rules, providing necessary care and watering, soon you will be able to enjoy fragrant and juicy fruits... We hope that the information on how to plant raspberries correctly presented in the article will be useful to you. Have a good harvest!
No one will give up raspberries at their summer cottage. It is not difficult to buy and plant raspberries - but they will grow in one place for several years, so this place should be chosen and equipped carefully. What plants should not be planted next to raspberries? What fertilizers should be applied when planting? We share information for which now, in August, is the right time.
Planting raspberries
It is best to plant raspberries in late summer - from mid-August to mid-September. But you can transplant it from one place to another in the spring and even in the middle of summer, if you want to plant young shoots. It is recommended to choose a sunny place for planting. The soil is improved by adding rotted compost (1-2 buckets for a plant). Deacidify with ash ( liter jar under the bush) or add a glass of lime.
As soon as you buy raspberries, the planting material must be shortened immediately, leaving stems only 20-25 cm high.If you are planting young growth from your plantation, then it should also be shortened before planting at the same height. Otherwise, the raspberry leaves, evaporating moisture, will dry out the stem, which is not supplied with moisture, until the bush has taken root and sucking roots have appeared.
It is generally recommended to plant two plants at once. Before planting, the roots must be immersed in water for at least two hours so that they are saturated with moisture, it is a good idea to add Kornevin or Heteroauxin to the water. But the roots should not be kept in water any longer. long time, since they will lose all the potassium they contain, and this will weaken the plant by early stage engraftment.
Everything that was mentioned above should be added to the planting pits or trenches, the soil should be well saturated with water, so that the plants are planted in the mud. Make mounds, spread the roots on them (broken or dry ones should first be cut out) and cover them with dry soil. In a trench, the bushes are planted on mounds located 80 cm apart. Then the trench is completely covered with soil. After planting, the soil is not compacted, but only slightly squeezed around the raspberry stems.
When planting raspberries, I immediately add 1 tbsp. spoonful of complex fertilizer AVA and no longer feed raspberries for three years, after which I put another 1 tbsp into the soil around each bush. spoon of this fertilizer for the next three years.
In order not to do weekly watering, I plant new bushes on Aquadon or hydrogel (2 cups of gel under the bush). This gives me the opportunity for two years to water raspberries in a week in dry weather, provided that the plantings are mulched.
How to arrange raspberries on the site
There is different ways growing raspberries. Often it is planted in a large curtain, placing the plants according to the 50 × 50 cm scheme evenly over the entire area, while the stems are buried into the soil by 3-4 cm when planting.If you plant raspberries deeper, the stem can rot, and if higher, there is a danger of freezing landings in winter.
It all ends with a planting, since there is no further care for raspberries. It grows by itself, like in a forest. No top dressing is done, old stems are not cut out, leaves are not harvested. Only hosed over the soil in dry weather. The underground part of the raspberry lives for about 12 years, so after this time the curtain will have to be moved to another place.
However, more often raspberries are grown along the borders of the plot in one or two lines, placing the bushes at a distance of 80 cm from each other, and the rows at a distance of 1 m.The width of the row for raspberries should be about 40 cm.All the shoots that fall outside this limitation should be cut, otherwise the raspberries will creep around the plantings for a rather long distance... When planting in rows, it is more convenient to dig not separate holes for each bush, but a continuous trench into which to plant the plants.
Raspberries can be planted in single bushes throughout the site for sunny places... But then, before planting, a segment is driven in the center of the future bush water pipe about 2 m long, deepening it into the ground by at least 40-50 cm. Having planted two plants at once on both sides of the pipe, as you grow, you will tie them to this support, simply pulling all the stems slightly with a rope into a bundle.
Several should be planted different varieties, since raspberries require cross-pollination. In addition, you must have varieties in the raspberry different terms ripening.
Raspberry seeds are mainly carried by birds. In bird stomachs, the seeds themselves are not processed, only the strong seed coat softens slightly, which contributes to their rapid germination. When propagating raspberries by seeds, remember this and scarify the seeds before sowing (break the seed coat by rolling the seeds along sandpaper) or soak for about half an hour in a weak solution of hydrochloric acid or in gastric juice (sold in a pharmacy).
Raspberry Neighbor Plants: Good and Not So Good
Raspberries perfectly coexist with apples, pears, plums, but they absolutely cannot stand cherries: even if planted 2-3 m away from them, raspberries begin to wither, become stunted, and bear fruit poorly.
You should not plant raspberries close to sea buckthorn and black currants, since all of these plants have roots in the same soil layer. The sea buckthorn will gradually survive the raspberries from their place, and the raspberries will sprout in the middle of the black currant bushes, oppressing the latter.
You cannot plant raspberries next to strawberries, and not only because their roots are located at the same depth, but also because they have common diseases and pests. It is not recommended to break up a raspberry plantation after tomatoes and potatoes.
How to tie up raspberries
In raspberries, which took root last summer, no more than 4 young shoots are left in the bush for the next season. If you leave more than 4 young shoots, the bushes thicken strongly, which leads, on the one hand, to poor lighting, and, consequently, to a drop in yield, on the other, to the spread of fungal diseases.
If you grow raspberries in rows, then you must definitely tie up the stems, otherwise they will begin to lean towards the soil under the weight of berries or wet foliage, and this can lead to breakage of the stem at the base. To keep the stems in an upright position, pull 2-3 horizontal trellises made of strong wire or cord, which are fixed on stakes driven into the ground at a distance of 2-3 m from each other.
If you make 2 such fences at a distance of 40 cm from each other on both sides of the plantings, then you can not tie the raspberries to the trellises. If there is only one fence, then you will have to tie the stems to each of the horizontal trellises.
If you push the fences to a width of about 50-60 cm, then last year's shoots can be tied to one side, from which we will harvest, and there will be enough space for the young growth that has appeared. It will not be shaded by fruiting branches. As they grow, young shoots should be tied to the trellis of the second fence. Thus, you will separate last year's and young shoots. This greatly facilitates the care of the plants.
So that the raspberries do not creep out of the allotted place, it is necessary either to dig in the slate to a depth of 30 cm and limit the landings on both sides, or every spring and autumn cut the boundary lines along the landings on a shovel bayonet. But you can do otherwise - leave a sod about 40 cm wide on each side along the raspberry plantings, on which you constantly walk, trampling the grass. Raspberries do not like dense soil and will not spread their roots to the trampled place.
If, nevertheless, the growth appears in the wrong place, it should be removed by cutting it with a sharp shovel and pulling it out by the roots. It is useless to cut off the growth of raspberries with pruning shears, as it will grow even thicker.
How many raspberries can grow in one place
With any planting method, raspberries should not be kept in one place for more than 8-10 years. It practically ceases to bear fruit. And not only because the root system is outdated or accumulated a large number of diseases and pests. There is one more side of the matter, which for some reason is paid little attention.
The fact is that the roots of all plants secrete toxins in order to suppress the growth of the roots of other plants adjacent to them. But with long-term cultivation of the same plant, too many of these toxins accumulate in one place, and they begin to oppress the plant itself that secretes them.
Each plant has its own length of time during which this process takes place. So, when grown in the same place of lettuce, the influence of its own toxins begins to affect itself already in the third generation. In peonies, the process lasts 15 years, and in raspberries, it begins in about 8-9 years. Even with the rejuvenation of the bush, the plants remain oppressed, since not only the renewal of the plant itself is required, but also the change of soil.

Growing raspberries is considered by some to be a simple matter... But many don't know to grow a rich and tasty berry harvest, you need to know some secrets planting and caring for this seemingly undemanding crop.
Where to plant?
By choosing the right place for planting raspberry bushes, you will provide yourself with a stable harvest of tasty and aromatic berries.
Usually gardeners allocate the most wasteful places for planting. It is not right. The yield is insignificant.
For the berry to be sweet, you need the sun... Raspberries moisture-loving plant... Therefore, you need to choose the places for it:
- Solar.
- Protected from the winds.
- Wet, but not swampy (it is good if there is a lot of snow accumulation in this place in winter).
- With a fertile soil layer.
When is it better to plant - in autumn or spring?
Raspberry bushes can be planted in any warm season, but the best time for planting is still autumn.
In autumn, the best ratio of temperature and humidity. Bushes rooted in autumn, grow faster in spring and get sick less.
At spring planting the plant takes root for a long time and the survival rate is less than in the autumn planting.
Preparing the soil for raspberry bushes must be done in advance. If the bushes are planted in the fall, then planting pits are prepared a month before disembarkation.
For spring planting, the pits are prepared in the fall. Seedlings not planted for some reason should be buried in the fall. In the spring, it is important to have time to plant the buried plants before the buds awaken.
Basic methods
Raspberries are planted on the site trench, pit or hole method... And the method according to the Sobolev method is also interesting. What is the difference?
Trench
Raspberry, planted by a trench, saves time on caring for her... Less watering, it is convenient to cover for the winter, the yield of berries increases.
Trench landing rules:
- Choose a well-lit place.
- For uniform illumination of the raspberry tree, direct the trenches from north to south.
- The length of the trenches is arbitrary, but the depth is 60-70 cm and the width is 40-50 cm.
- If there are more than one rows, then the distance between them is at least 1.5 m.
- Heavy loamy soil needs to be lightened. At the bottom of the trench, pour a layer of 10-15 cm of gravel or sand. Mix the soil with humus. Sprinkle over it mineral fertilizers for 1 sq m:
- 200 grams of phosphoric;
- 60-70 grams of potash;
- 300-400 grams wood ash.
- you can use complex fertilizers: 200 grams of nitroammofosk or nitrophoska.
- Mix everything thoroughly again. Top up with 10 cm of fertile soil. Leave 30-40 cm of free space to the top of the ditch.
- Reinforce the edges with bumpers. They should not crumble. Suitable for strengthening: boards, roofing felt or polycarbonate.
- Install T-shaped posts from the ends of the trench. Height 1 m.
- Stretch 2 rows of wire. From the ground 30-40 cm and along the top of the posts.
- Plant the seedlings in one line with a distance of 1 m between the plants.
- Dig holes. Place the plant. Cover with soil. To make the plant stand firmly, compact the soil around the bole.
- Water in two steps, in small portions, until the soil is completely saturated with moisture. After watering, it is recommended to mulch the soil around the raspberries. This will prevent it from drying out and relieve unnecessary hassle for weeding and loosening. Peat, humus, pine needles or compost are suitable as mulch.
- Seedlings should be tied to a wire as they grow. Start the garter from the lower tiers.
The trench method of growing raspberries is effective, but optional and suitable for a large raspberry tree.
Dimple
If you have a small amount of raspberries, then it is more advisable to plant them in a dimple or by a bush method followed by fan-shaped crown formation. Pits should be prepared two weeks before planting.
Landing rules:
- Dig holes 35-40 cm deep and wide.The distance between the holes is from 0.6 m to 1 m.
- Fill with fertile soil:
- 5-6 kg of humus;
- 150 grams of double superphosphate;
- 50 grams of potassium sulfate;
- 200 grams of wood ash.
- Pour the mixture on the bottom of the pit, and put 10 cm of plain soil on top.
- Place a barrier around the perimeter of the raspberry tree. Boards, roofing felt, slate or polycarbonate are suitable.
- Trim the roots of the Sanzhenians until they are healthy. Cut off shoots. Leave 35-40 cm.
- Lower the plant, spread the roots and cover with soil. Seal around the bole.
- During planting, the root collar should be 3-4 cm higher than the soil level. After the earth has shrunk, it will be at the soil level.
- After the raspberries are planted, they should be watered. Watering should be done in 2-3 doses in small portions. Until the soil is saturated with moisture.
- Mulch the soil around the trunk. For this, humus, peat, sawdust or chopped grass are suitable.
According to Sobolev
According to gardeners, growing only a few raspberry bushes in the country using the Sobolev method, it is possible to get up to 5 kg of berries from a bush.
So what is the method:
- Preparing the beds and planting sites. We choose a well-lit place and place the ridge from north to south or from east to west.
- Knock the sides out of the boards or make them out of slate. It is important that the bed is 20 cm above the soil level.
- The width of the bed is 1 m. The length is as much as the raspberry bushes. The distance between plants is not less than 1 m. Rarely planted bushes are better illuminated and blown out. It is convenient to look after them. Disease rates are decreasing. This increases the yield of raspberries.
- Raspberries are planted on the ridge in early autumn.
- Pits are dug 30 * 30 cm wide. One seedling is planted.
- Make trellises.
The yield of raspberries by this method is the same depends on correct pruning ... In the spring, after the raspberries give young shoots, carry out the first pruning.
In late May or early June, cut at a distance of 80-100 cm from the ground. It is convenient to look after the bushes at this height. They do not lean to the ground under the weight of the crop.
In the second year, carry out a second pruning of the bushes. Side shoots should be cut by 10 cm. With this pruning, the bush becomes like a small tree.
Produces many peduncles on which berries are tied. As a result, the yield on the bushes increases.
According to the Sobolev method it is better to transplant strong offspring to a new place, and cut out the rest of the shoots... Thus, the usual variety turns into a remontant one. The bush bears fruit until late autumn.
In addition to pruning, raspberries also need proper care, which consists in watering, feeding and mulching.
Having formed a bed according to the Sobolev method, the gardener does not need to dig up and loosen the soil. Raspberry is a moisture-loving plant, therefore there must be timely watering and it is not necessary to allow the land to dry out.
Sprinkle mulch on the ridge to retain moisture in the soil. If possible, then it is better to use fresh manure as mulch... Manure is used as fertilizer and protects the soil from drying out and weeds.
If there is no manure available, then mulch the garden available means... The mulch layer should be at least 10 cm.
Despite the manure of the garden, possible shortage nutrients ... It can be determined by the type of plant: the shoots become thin and weak, the color of the leaves changes - they curl, spots appear and the edges dry out.
In this case organic fertilizing should be done: Drizzle with mullein infusion or chicken droppings with wood ash.
How to make an infusion: Collect cow dung in a third of the container and fill it with water to the top. Insist 2 days.
For watering, it must be diluted in water 1:10. That is, take 1 liter of infusion on a bucket of water, add a glass of wood ash. Stir well and pour over the raspberries.
Before you cover your raspberries for the winter, you need to cut out the branches that have fruited at the root. Young stems of the current season should be bent neatly to the soil and pinned down with forks.
Now cover the bent stems for the winter. Cover with baptized branches, and cover from above with non-woven fabric, tarpaulin or any available material. In winter, the artificial shelter will be covered with snow, which will keep it from freezing.
How to grow raspberries from seeds
Many varieties of raspberries it is possible to grow from seeds... The process is time consuming, but interesting. What is needed for this?
- Buy raspberry seeds from the store or pick overripe berries of your favorite variety.
- Squeeze the berry through cheesecloth. The result is gruel. We dilute this gruel with water and wash the seeds. Empty seeds will float to the surface. They are not needed. Collect and dry the rest.
Seeds can be planted in open ground or grow seedlings in pots at home.
In the open field
In early September, in a specially prepared garden bed, plant the seeds to a depth of 2 cm... Cover with humus and sand from above.
We leave the seeds for the winter. In the spring, the seeds will sprout. Further care normally.
In flower pots
To grow raspberry seedlings in pots, seeds must be stratified... To do this, place the seeds in a wet napkin in the refrigerator for two weeks.
Then plant in pots or a special box. Prepare loose earth mix peat and soil in a ratio of 50 * 50.
Planting in pots in March: plant the seeds to a depth of 0.5 cm, water every 3 days. You should also fertilize every 10 days with urea.
After the seeds sprout, we grow seedlings before the onset of heat... Then transplant raspberry seedlings into open ground.
Now you know about how to grow raspberries different methods how to care for her, how to grow raspberries from seeds. This will help you grow a good and tasty raspberry harvest.
