They envied the neighbors whose raspberries are breaking from the berries? The simple method of the agronomist from the Channel “Perfect Garden” on Dzen.ru (16+) changes everything: two actions a year – and from three bushes to 15 kg of crop. No watering and top dressing, only the exact deadlines and a minimum of trouble.
A secret in two steps: mulching in June and thinning in May. Forget about nitrogen and pinching – this is the path to foliage, not to fruits. Mulch saves the roots from the heat, and the removal of weak shoots gives the power of the berries. Everything takes half an hour a year.
Agronomist method for raspberries
Mix grass, sawdust, peat (3: 1: 1). Layer 5 – 7 cm, radius 0.5 m. Add a handful of ash/bush. Mulch is dry so that the roots do not rot. Harvest from 2 to 4 – 5 kg/bush, the berries are sweeter. We thin out (May 25 – June 5), leave 4 – 5 shoots/bush (30 – 40 cm), we cut down the weak under the root.
Nuances and plan for July
Nuance 1: Cut the shoots when 30 – 40 cm, no earlier/later.
Nuance 2: ash in mulch – for the sweetness of the berries.
Nuance 3: After 14 days, the leaves turn green, after 30 – the berries large by 15 – 20%.
Plan:
July 1 – 5: check the shoots.
July 5 – 10: Build.
July 15 – 20: Sprinkle mulch.
