How to cut raspberry

Malina is a valuable berry growing almost at each garden plot. For high yield of shrubs, it is necessary to ensure proper care. Along with the application of fertilizers and constant irrigation, the correct and timely pruning of shoots is.

To trim the raspberry use a sharp secret. If you cut with a knife or conventional scissors, you can damage and split the remaining stem, which will lead to diseases of the plant.

First trimming should be done immediately after landing. Escape is cut at an altitude of 30-40 cm so that in a short time there are new shoots from which the first harvest will be obtained.

Spring trimming in May is to remove the unseen green top of a young one-year escape, which can give only a small amount of small berries. Thus, the plant ceases to grow into height and produces side stems, where berries will appear in the future. Such side skes can even be a few dozen.

The height of the shoots should be about 120 cm, the distance between them is at least 15 cm. Also carefully check all shoots: weak are cut under the root, damaged is cut off to a healthy part so that the disease or pests do not spread to the entire stem, two-year removed.

By the summer, the number of young shoots increases. Unnecessary weaker and thin stems are cut under the root, trying not to leave the hemp. This allows stronger shoots to develop better and get more nutrients from the soil. Such trimming is carried out 1-2 times over the summer.

In the fall, immediately after harvesting, old dried and brutged stems and excessive piglers are removed, leaving 8 to 10 shoots.

Crumpled raspberries once a year will save time, but the crop will only once a year. If it is correct and in time to carry out a shrub, dividing shoots on annual and biennium, then it will be fruit during the summer.
