It's hard to find anyone who would not love raspberries - especially grown in his backyard. But all gardeners is well known, one problem "trait" of the drug fragrant berries - excessive aggressiveness in the "capture" of the garden area.
I remember how I - inexperienced gardener ten years ago, was surprised by the property raspberries grow in the garden at the speed of useless weed. No sooner had the young offshoot settle down itself as round appeared shoots from them - more and more...
And pull out the root of the excess land of raspberries is not so simple: it is sitting firmly in the soil and deep.
But here, as in any "military" action the main thing - do not panic. Grandmother, neighbor, looking at my futile efforts to regain territory in raspberries for others - a "peace-loving" cultures, took pity and shared a unique "defensive" strategy.
The method is surprisingly simple, requiring absolutely no financial outlay and a large amount of time.
So, we must act in two stages:
1. "Mopping up" the enemy ranks
In order to prevent the proliferation of raspberries throughout the territory of the plotAnd also get a big, bountiful harvest of berries, raspberry bush in early spring must be properly thin out.
Regret at the same time the young shoots should not be: left here and there, they soon give themselves additional "seed."
Trim the excess branches need at the rootLeaving only the strongest and healthiest of them.
2. "The enemy," the trenches
After a series of our tasty and healthy "enemy" noticeably thinned out, we proceed to the second part of our operation. Along the perimeter of the entire raspberry planting dig a shallow "trench" and planted there... garlic cloves.
For some reasons known to her alone, raspberries hates the vegetable crops. Abroad, a certain grown garlic, it is (as the long-term practice of my "Commander in Chief" - Grandma-neighbor) does not come under any circumstances!
So - with the usual garlic you can not only severely limit the spread raspberry zone on your site, but to get to the winter of another antiviral "drug". Dishes, generously seasoned with garlic and fragrant tea with raspberries will save you from the cold better than any modern vaccinations!
