General description of the plant

Malina belong to the family of pink. It is a reprehensive bush, whose branches are covered with small spikes. Fruit raspberries with berries of various shades - from light yellow to almost black. Fruption begins for the second year after landing, however, if the conditions are favorable (usually this southern regions), the bush can please delicious berries for the first year. Today there are repairful varieties capable of fruit under relatively cool climatic conditions.

Landing

Despite the great variety of raspberry varieties, landing rules for all are about the same. Malina prefers soils with low or neutral acidity, well-lit pads, covered from drafts and a strong wind. It is important not to put the raspberry bushes next to the plants that can affect similar diseases, for example, with tomatoes, potatoes or strawberries.

The planting should be engaged in spring or at the beginning of autumn, and green cuttings root in the summer. It is necessary to prepare the soil in advance about a month before the bushes landing so that the fertilizers should have to do in the ground and evenly distribute it. Malina can be grown separately growing bushes or arrange a whole Malinnik, disembarking the plants with a ribbon. To implement the first scenario, you need to dig up a pits of about 40x50 cm, pour a fertile earth mixture to a small slide there, mooring the roots of the raspberry in Kornvin, omit in the hole and pour out the earth. Blow the plant so that the root neck remains 3-5 cm above the ground level - over time, the soil will give a shrinkage, and it will be just in the right position. If you break the young bush too much, the root kidney can bend. Hold the distance between the bushes at least 1 m, otherwise adult plants will be very closely. Between the rows, leave about 2 m.

To plant bushes in a row, dig a trench of about 50x50 cm, withsting about 80 cm between rows, and between the bushes - 60 cm. Fill in the trench with a fertile mixture of overworked manure, turf and complex mineral fertilizers. Nitrogen fertilizers at this stage are not recommended, otherwise the bushes will be slow and badly rooted. To reduce the acidity of the soil, you can add some ash.

In both cases, after landing, it is necessary to hide the seedlings and cover the soil of mulch from peat, humus or dry turne. This will prevent too much rapid evaporation of moisture and the appearance of weeds. If you have a saplings with well-developed kidneys, cut them, leaving 25-30 cm so that the plant will let all their strength on rooting, and not on the development of the kidneys. Raspberry water loves the water, but the convergence does not tolerate, so the soil must be well drained.

Care

Malina needs trimming, otherwise the landing will be too thick, and the root stroke will take the power of the mother's bush that could go on the formation of a tasty and juicy crop. After landing the tops of the branches, it is necessary to shorten about 20 cm, after which it is possible to repeat the procedure annually in spring or after gathering berries. Early spring shoots should be shortened by about 10 cm to the strongest kidney.

Useful advice: so that it is not necessary to loosen the land around the bush too often and remove weeds, but the straw or upper peat.

Some varieties need to bend for wintering so that the branches do not break under the snow cover. Large varieties need to be tied up so that the branches do not break under the weight of the berries. The fan garter method is most popular, since it creates convenient conditions for harvesting and the landing. For this, there are two poles between the bushes and are tied to them at different heights of the fruiting branches of one bush and some of the other.

However, if you planted with raspberries in a row, it will be more convenient to make a heat garter. To do this, it is necessary to tie a wire with rows to the luminous sixth, retreating from the center of the pole by 30-35 cm so that the branches are located in a heaten at an angle. Soothes should be tiered to the wire. When the plant is small, just one row, but as the bush grows the number of rows should be increased.
