June is the time to apply fertilizer to raspberries.
Nutrients will “charge” the crop and allow the gardener to harvest the maximum amount.
Expert of the online publication TUT NOVOSTI, agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh shared the nuances of June fertilizing of raspberries.
You can tell that a crop needs nutrients by its appearance.
If, for example, raspberries have large, richly green leaves, this is an indicator of excess nitrogen. In this case, the plant needs to be fed with potassium.
It will stimulate flowering. The working solution is prepared from 2 tbsp. of mineral fertilizer per bucket of water.
If the raspberry leaves are falling off and the leaves themselves have a faded shade, then the plant does not have enough sunlight and nitrogen.
In this case, you can use nitroammophoska - a handful of fertilizer per 10 liters of water.
But it is worth remembering that fertilizing should be done on pre-moistened soil. If the soil is dry, you need to water it with ordinary water and wait until the moisture is absorbed.
We previously told you how to simplify watering plants. This clever trick with a plastic bottle will be useful to many gardeners.
