When and how correctly to transplant a raspberry?

Every caring gardener understands thatwith time (4-6 years), the yield of raspberry decreases. Which contributes to the need for its transplantation.

Also, the cause of transplantation may be the cessation of fruitfulness, or the growth in an unusable place.

In which season it is better to replace raspberries

In the spring

Most amateur gardeners transplant sprouts at a time when the plant is moving away from autumn-winter weather, namelyspring, while this summer there is the opportunity to obtain an excellent crop.

To do this, it is better to pre-prepare the plants, namely in autumn. It is good to use plants with a well-developed rhizome.

It can be seen from practice that if this is done correctly, then at the end of the summer you can collect a fairly good amount of raspberries.

If you comply with all the requirements for growing a plant, timely change of the site of their growth, you can pamper yourself all summer with a wonderful harvest of such useful berries.

In summer

Plant raspberryit is possible and in the summer months. But in this period it should be much more prudent to treat both the choice of the site and the month for this process.

Because, as in this period is quite hot, you need to plant in the evening or early morning, when there is no strong heat.

When choosing a place for raspberries, it is necessary to remember thatThe plant reacts negatively to direct sunlight. Therefore, it is better to choose a shaded area in the area with scattered light.

WhereinIt is necessary to monitor the looseness of the earth- it should be slightly loose. The best place is the site next to the stone blocks.

In the ground, before transplantation, it is necessary to make fertilizers, suitable - herb infusion. In the last summer month, August, it is worth removing the old crimson seedlings, and for wintering leave a few new shoots.

During the summer heat, a constant watering of the plant is necessary.

In the autumn

Most farmers are inclined to think thatthe procedure of transplantation is best performed at the end of summer and in autumn. The most suitable month is September.

After 3-4 days also mulch shredded straw or peat. This procedure will protect the shoots from active growth of weeds, while also preserving the long period of humidity necessary for growth.

How can you transplant a raspberry to a new place?

The correct planting material

For transplant takeannual offspring of a plant with a well-developed root system(15-20 cm). The above-ground stem must be at least 8-10 mm in diameter. Prepared seedlings are shortened to 30 cm.

With a small number of offspring, as well as to quickly increase the plantation of good variety,Root cuttings can be used(segments of the roots). During the excavation of seedlings (in autumn), the remaining remains of the root system are excavated from the ground.

They are left with a thickness of 3-5 mm and a length of 10-15 cm. Keep it in wet sand in the basement until the spring landing.

When planting crimson seedlings, the following points should be considered:

• the plant does not grow in lowland areas, especially when they are flooded in the spring;
• raspberries do not like too much moisture, water it in a timely and chaste manner. To do this, enough 4 buckets of water per 1 square. m twice per month;
• does not tolerate the plant shaded areas that are not protected from the cold wind;
• rows of raspberries are best planted from north to south, which will enable the sun to warm it well.

Trench or ribbon variants

Under the planting material, trenches 40-45 cm deep and 50-60 cm wide are prepared. The seedlings must be in the trench with an interval of at least 40 cm, and the distance between the grooves in, m.

During the preparation of the grooves theremust be applied fertilizer or ash. But, when there is a fertile top layer, you can fill it with a trench instead of fertilizers.

Before planting, the rhizome is lowered into a solution on the basis of Mullein with clay, then gently put in a trench and sprinkled with earth. After that the seedlings are watered abundantly, and the soil is compacted and mulched around them.

Perforated or shrub mode

This option is more suitable for transplanting raspberry raspberry in the autumn. As in the ribbon version, so in the pit soil they start to prepare in advance.

Usuallypit excavated at least 60 cm in diameter and a depth of at least 40 cm. The distance between the pits is usually more than one meter, and the gap between the seedlings themselves is -1 m.

Soil before planting is fertilized: humus, or ash, or a fertile top layer. Before transplanting the soil loosen.

Plants are dipped in a pit, previously moistened in a solution of mullein and clay, compacted and well watered.

How to take care of transplanted raspberries

To look after young seedlingsit is necessary as follows:

• timely watering;
• regularly make fertilizers;
• systematically loosen the soil.

Saplings when planting you need to load to the same level as they grew earlier. The root should be sprinkled with the composition from the compost and upper soil, and then gently compacted.

To increase fruitfulnessspecial attention is required by the transplanted squirts of the repair raspberry:

• it is necessary to cut off all excess sprouts in a timely manner, on the vital activity of which more than half of all the useful substances of the plant go;
• before wintering it is necessary to remove young, weak, and bear two-year-old sprouts that will not suffer severe frosts;
• in the first month of spring it is necessary to feed the plant by introducing fertilizers into the soil: wood ashes, manure, minerals;
• watering, it should be borne in mind that berry bushes react negatively to excessive moisture. It can also affect the quality of the berries and the amount of the harvest.

Secrets of double pruning

Correct double pruningalways has a good effect on the yield of berries. Only with quality care can you count on the further fruitfulness of raspberries.

Fertilized shoots are cut immediately after harvesting the last crop under the root (without hemp), while removing young and thin shoots measuring 50 cm.

The site is left with strong seedlings with an interval of 10-15 cm. Closer to the autumn they are tied up in bundles.

Features of spring

Spring pruning raspberries must be held in early March, after melting snow until the earth warms up completely.

Examining the bush, it is necessary to cut all the frozen and damaged shoots, leaving 15-18 strongest per 1 m of the row. The frozen tops should also be shortened to a healthy kidney, tied the plant to the trellis.

There is a modern method of trimming - double pruning.

To ensure a good fruitfulness of not only repair, but also ordinary raspberries,It is necessary to cut the shoots at different distances, up to 15 cm from the soil.

The closer to the ground the cut, the later the plant will bear fruit.

According to Sobolev

Primary pruning for Sobolev produced in late May. Cut off the tops of young plants that have reached a height of -1 meter. In the autumn period, these shoots resemble small trees - the main stem with several lateral branches.

Secondary pruning is carried out in spring next year, when the cold raspberry raspberry is completely dissolved. In this case, the tops and their lateral branches are removed by 5-15 cm.

In the autumn transplantation of bushesIt is best to plant only a few young offspring on the new plot than the entire bush. So the seedling will quickly take root and take root.

It must be remembered that for a better harvest, you do not need to overload and provide shrubs with quality fertilizers and sufficient watering.

Systematic renovation of the raspberry plantation is necessary to increase the yield, because after a certain time the plant sucks out from the soil all the useful substances necessary for the growth of raspberries.

The plant should not grow more than 5-10 years in one place. Proper care and timely rejuvenation of the plantation will always please the grower with high-quality yield.
