Growing Instructions
Planting and caring for raspberry plants is really quite easy once you know a few secrets about raspberry plants. Good healthy raspberry plants will provide you with an ample supply of sweet, delicious fruit.
A few preparation steps are required before you can begin planting and caring for your raspberry plants.
You must decide where you want to raise your raspberry plants. The soil must be well drained. In other words, the area should quickly dry after rain and not hold standing water. The plants must have enough room for their roots to grow up to 4 feet long.
Raspberry plants require 1 to 2 inches of water per week and full exposure to sunlight. The area where you plant and care for your raspberry plants should be away from buildings or trees, giving the plant well-circulated air, while avoiding exposure to extreme winds. It is best to avoid areas where wild raspberry and blackberry plants are growing, and shy away from land where potatoes, peppers, tomatoes, or eggplants were grown within the last four years. These extra efforts will help to prevent the spread of Verticillium wilt, which can destroy your plants.
