Ideal conditions for cultivation of cranberries are acidic soils with a pH from 2 to 7, with good lighting and proximity to water. For initial fertilizer, peat, dirty foliage, ordinary humid or superphosphate will be used. The latter is made at the rate of 20 g per square meter. The top layer is mounted with sand up to 5 cm. Excellent solution for cranberries - high beds. They struck with a dense fence, climb up, and below are paired by a layer of fertilizers.

Sit cranberry with cuttings, throughout the warm season. The best months for rooting - May and August. The cutting should remain at least 7 cm, but not more than 15 in length. Two-3 cuttings are planted in the hole, with a distance of about 15 cm between the pits. Under the ground should remain 2 \\ 3 shoots, it accelerates the appearance of the roots. Naturally, the "polarity" should be observed - the top point, backward side. Climbing on the contrary bushes will come together, but will be more sluggish.

If the seedling occurred in the spring, by the end of the summer, the length of the shoots should be at least 20 cm. If traces of the lag in development are noticeable, the site is recommended to fertilize every 2-3 weeks with complex compositions with nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus, magnesium and other substances. Cannot be made in bed with a potassium chloride or other chlorine compounds. For the winter, especially if the snow did not fall, the cranberry must be stolen. It is suitable for these purposes, sawdust, film or even special panels from wood or PVC. In an industrial scale, the plants are completely immersed in the ice. For this, water is gradually layering and frozen, repeating the process during thaws.

In the middle of spring, the cranberry stimulates to growth, removing the cover and falling asleep the plot of a smooth layer of sand up to 1 cm. If March and April were outlined with frosts, the clutch shoots can be saved independently.
