Features of growing raspberries

Seedlings take root very well in a new place and take strong roots, after which they form a reliable root system. But before planting raspberries, there are many important factors to consider. This is especially true for agricultural technology.

Recommended timings

For planting, it is important to choose the time, also counting on frosts and taking into account all the possible vagaries of the weather. Landing is carried out in spring or autumn. The most suitable temperature would be 10 -12 degrees above zero.

The soil should be slightly warmed up and prepared according to all standards. Don't plant at high temperatures, as then there is less chance that the plant will take root. The soil will dry out very quickly and will not be suitable for planting.

Choosing a suitable location

For planting choose a place with loose loamy soil. There the roots will take better. Field plants grow on such soils, so it is not difficult to find it. The depth of the landing pit is approximately 2 meters. The place is chosen sunny, beds are made near the fence. The plant will be protected from the wind.

Preparation of planting material

The soil is chosen not too acidic. Seedlings for planting are selected. The height of the seedling is from 0.8 to 1 meter. The plant usually has 2-3 young shoots. It is important that the raspberry root system is not damaged, as this is the key to successful cultivation of delicious berries and the preservation of the bush. In such a system there will be 6-7 roots.

Before planting, the material is stored in a bag or fabric with plastic tape, protecting it from damage and exposure to various factors.

Boarding process

Landing takes place at an average temperature. First, holes are dug to a depth of 25-30 centimeters and fertilized to prepare the site for planting. Add manure, peat, wood ash. Top dressing is mixed with the ground to avoid burns of the root system and damage to young roots.

Plants are planted at a distance of 1 meter from each other. If raspberries are planted in rows, then a space of 2 meters is made between them. After that, young raspberries are buried and a recess is made so that water is well absorbed and does not stagnate on the surface. This will help prevent the formation of diseases and provide the seedling with the necessary amount of moisture.

Also, immediately around the raspberries of the Bryansk Divo variety, they form a near-trunk circle and mulch it. The circle is at a distance of 45-50 centimeters from the plant. But before that, it is very important to get rid of weeds.

After the planting process is completed, the young plant is shortened to a height of 40-45 centimeters.

Pegs are stuck into the soil and seedlings are tied up, this is done so that the young raspberry has support until its roots get stronger and take over.

Care instructions

The methods of growing Bryanskoe divo are slightly different from the methods of growing raspberries of other varieties, which allows you to take a fresh look at this hybrid.

Irrigation mode

Watering is carried out twice a day, as the size of the bush. This is important in the first years of raspberry life, as the young plant must not dry out. Also, portions are increased during the fruiting period, so that the berries are filled with juice. Water seedlings and adult plants in the evening or in the morning, when the moisture does not have time to evaporate.

If you follow all the rules of watering, then the raspberries will create powerful roots.

Weed control and loosening

From time to time they loosen the soil so that the water is well saturated and the roots breathe. But this is done carefully so as not to damage the root system. Weeds and small shoots are carefully removed, because such plants take strength and energy from raspberries. In order to prevent overgrowth from appearing near the seedling at first, iron or wooden plates are placed.

Raspberry fertilizer

Fertilizers are applied twice a year. For this procedure, manure or its water infusion is used. Also, some dressings improve the taste of raspberry Bryansk Divo. For example, they bring wood ash under each bush at the end of July.

Pruning bushes

Before starting, you should get sharp instruments, it is very important that they are sterile. This will help prevent disease and protect the plant from infection.

With the beginning of the growing season, small shoots are carefully cut. Such pruning stimulates the growth of new, young shoots. Lateral shoots are gifted with large fruits. The same pruning is carried out after the end of the fruiting period.

If you regularly carry out such procedures, you will be able to keep the soil fertile for many years, since fertilizers will not be wasted. Pruning will not only form a bush, but also prevent pests. Insects can hide in leaves or branches.

The berries in this case will be larger, and the bush will not "get tired" in the process of fruiting.

Preparing for winter

After the last, autumn pruning, preparations for the winter period begin. Bryansk wonder is famous for its winter hardiness and is able to withstand negative temperatures. Usually they insulate the near-trunk circle, at the base of the raspberries I sprinkle straw with manure, which will warm the plant in the cold.

Diseases and pests

Like any other crop, this variety is susceptible to some diseases. Although the variety is considered resistant, there are pests that every gardener knows.

For starters, this representative is the raspberry beetle. These insects are yellow-gray in color, small in size. They are dangerous because they destroy the buds. After collecting the beetles in jars, the plants are treated with the Iskra preparation.

Raspberry-strawberry weevil is another pest known to gardeners. The larvae of this creature also eat the buds before the flowers appear there. The treatment is carried out with the same preparation, but before that, beetles are manually collected.

Raspberry propagation

Reproduction of raspberries by lignified offspring is considered one of the easiest ways, since here the chance of successful reproduction is high. Young green offspring are also used. Root cuttings are well accepted by the soil, so gardeners often practice this method. And the most popular is the division of the bush.

Collecting and storage rules
