The quality and quantity of the raspberry harvest can be influenced by various factors.
It depends on both the plant variety and the care requirements.
Agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh told how to increase the size of raspberries on bushes.
First of all, it is important to pay attention to the place where the bush grows.
It should have good drainage and sufficient light.
If you choose the right place to plant this plant, it will delight you with large and tasty berries.
For a good harvest, raspberry bushes also need to be thinned out. Therefore, all dead, damaged and old branches should be removed.
Otherwise, due to the thickening of the plant, its yield may decrease.
The amount of moisture and essential nutrients also plays an important role.
Moreover, both their deficiency and excess can cause harm to the plant.
If it rains often enough in the spring, raspberries do not require additional watering.
Otherwise, due to excess moisture, the roots may begin to rot.
Don't forget about nutrients. It is especially important to add them in the spring.
At this time, nitrogen can be used to feed the bush.
When caring for raspberries, you cannot ignore pest control. Otherwise, you may be left without a good harvest.
For this purpose, you can use both special products and decoctions of plants that have an insecticidal effect.
