Planting raspberry raspberry - rules and features
Planting a patchwork raspberry is a rather laborious process that requires a lot of attention and planning.

Before planting plants, it is necessary to choose the most comfortable place for this. It is best to give priority to the southern side of the suburban area with a loose and fertile patch of land. However, when planting raspberries of the specified variety, darkened and separated places will not suit you. In this area, as a rule, the plant will not be able to give a normal harvest.
The best time for planting a plant is autumn, but if you wish, you can also make a landing in the summer.
The main thing that must be considered when cultivating raspberries remontant is: the time of planting, the depth of planting the seedlings in the ground and the density of planting.
.Timing- the time for planting a raspberry may be significantly different from other varieties. Typically, a similar plant variety should be planted at least a week before the designated frost. This variety has a fairly active metabolism, which allows you to get good fruits even during a considerable cooling, but it gives some complications when planting new material.
Some gardeners start planting right after the last frost and, in most cases, this gives a much more result than when planting a canopy. However, one significant problem arises - in the first 5 months after such planting, the seedlings will not have time to reach the necessary maturity and give a normal, large harvest. The first berries with a similar planting can be obtained only in the second year after planting.
Landing in the ground- as a rule, raspberry plants have a length of up to 250 cm, rather thick stems, but they also have a root of the beam type. This feature allows the plant to receive food only from the depth where the lateral roots are located. That is why planting raspberries of this variety is necessary to a depth of 30-50 cm, which will allow the plant it is comfortable to receive all necessary substances for nutrition and to justify a large area for collecting minerals.
Density of planting- when planting a raspberry of the specified variety, it is necessary to take into account the height of the bushes and the thickness of the stems. Based on these parameters, the plants should not be planted too close and plant 2 or more bushes for 1 running meter. Planting raspberry bushes is not every year, but only once in the interval of 7 to 15 years, which is why it is necessary rather carefully and carefully treat this procedure, that the plant would grow properly and bring good harvest. Remember that raspberry bushes should not sit too close, because in this way it will interfere with their normal growth, and you properly take care of them.

As a rule, when planting the plant on the bottom of the prepared fossa, it is necessary to put compost with a calculation of two buckets per one running meter. You can also use humus and several glasses of potassium fertilizer. If desired, you can use wood ash instead of fertilizer, which will also give a very good result for planting and growing the plant.
It is necessary to cover the trench layer by layer:
- The first layer contains pre-prepared fertilizers,
- the second is the land mixed with fertilizers,
- the third is a clean layer from the fertile land.
There are different ways of planting a repair raspberry:
- Ordinary way of planting - implies landing, in which the distance between rows of bushes does not exceed 2 meters, when planting seedlings - 1 meter;
- Tape planting method - means planting plants in one or several rows, the gap between which is, a meter.
- A shrub planting method means the planting of raspberries with the placement of squares of the square in the corners, the sides of which are from 1 to, meters; With this method, plants are planted arbitrarily, choosing the most sunny ones for planting places.
