Planting
To ensure optimal soil fertility and structure, prepare the ground by loosening it to a depth of 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) and incorporating compost or well-rotted manure before planting. For best results, plant raspberry canes in early spring or late fall when the soil is workable. When planting, follow these steps: dig a hole large enough for the roots, spread them out, backfill with soil, and gently firm the soil around the plant. To promote proper airflow and space for growth, place raspberry plants about 2-3 feet (60-90 cm) apart in rows that are 6-8 feet (1.8-2.4 meters) apart. For support and ease of harvesting, consider installing a trellis system at the time of planting or soon after. During the growing season and fruiting period, keep the soil consistently moist, but avoid waterlogging by watering deeply to encourage deep root growth.
