Very often, a novice gardener does not know what raspberry growing in his garden, because as a rule the site was bought already with her in a place and find it somewhere in the bush. Carefully transplanted bushes, admiring the result. Autumn comes and the time comes to pruning... and in his own way... But not everyone knows that the formation of the bush and cropping have significant differences.

We begin with the landing. Raspberries grow perennial shrub. So that it is well bred, you need to take a well-developed shoots. It is necessary to carefully dig raspberry bush, and then immediately, though he cut the stem should be left somewhere 35-40 cm. Based on many years of experience, it was observed that planting in the first uncircumcised bush makes the plant less, and secondly, it affects the crop - berries are formed small. When pruning is necessary to lose a year of fruiting, but get strong annual stems, which will be good to branch out and give a superior quality crop.

The total life cycle of the common raspberry is made up of two years: first, the so-called annuals grow stalks, and they branch out and give the berries the second year. And once you have collected it with berries, immediately recommended to remove all otplodonosivshie 2 year old branches. It is not necessary to delay the cutting of stalks, a delay leading to a possible proliferation of various pests, diseases and even plants. Cut need for soil level. All cut stems collect and burn.

It is best to grow raspberries when planted continuous narrow strips of 50-60 cm. Certain shrubs growing worse. On a bed narrow annual stems raspberry tied up to a trellis (horizontally stretched wire). If you show up after winter podmerzshie annual stalks, then shorten them to a healthy kidney. Strongly do not need to be shortened so as not to reduce future harvest.

In the summer it is necessary to monitor the annual regrowth of the stems and remove the weaknesses in a timely manner. For the best of them should be 10-15 per meter.

The following year, raspberry grows and bears fruit throughout the season and the autumn takes the form, as shown in Figure 3. Again immediately otplodonosivshie need to cut the stems.

Malina has a lot of remontant varieties, the most popular is the Diamond, Indian Summer, Orange miracle, Kalashnikov and others. They have a process of growth, branching, and then fruiting stalks stacked in one year, and hence there are differences in the so-called pruning.

So, let's say you put remontant raspberries. At the beginning of the summer it grows first-year stem to have as close to the end of the summer it forks, and by the autumn, at the beginning of September, there is a lot of berries. But unfortunately some of them will not be able to mature up to the first frost. In winter the entire ground segment of the grade cut to soil level.

If you do not make timely pruning, then left the stems and spend the winter in the next year will harvest at the same time as the common raspberry. Already in mid-spring will be brand new stems, fruits of which will be in September. It turns out that our own raspberry bush will bear fruit twice a year, but 2 fruiting will be much weaker.
