Experienced gardeners know that some perennials and shrubs, especially fruit and berries, need to be periodically transplanted. About the nuances and subtleties of such a procedure for raspberry bushes will be discussed in this article.
Why and after how many years you need to transplant to a new place
Raspberries tend to deplete the soil in which it grows. Not getting enough nutrients, the bush gives fewer new shoots, withering. This adversely affects the yield - the berries become smaller, they are small and not too tasty. You can improve the situation by transplanting bushes to a new place. 
This should be done about once every five years. If there are no signs of deterioration, the period can be prolonged, the main thing is not to refuse the transplantation at all, because the raspberry jam cannot live in one place for more than ten years.
Important! On withThe summer bushes following the transplant may not bear fruit. If you do not want to stay completely without berries, transfer the raspberry jam in two passes, half way through the bushes in autumn.
When to transplant in the fall
In principle, many gardeners believe that it is possible to replant plants at any time, except for winter. This point of view is not devoid of sense, but too risky - in the summer the heat can be destroyed by heat, in late autumn - early frosts, in early spring the soil is not sufficiently heated.

Climatic features of the region
The choice of the optimal landing time depends on the climatic zone. Temperature and humidity should be suitable so that the sapling or shrub begins and forms a root system sufficient for wintering. If autumn is mild and warm, then it is better to plant it then, otherwise - transfer to spring.
In the fall, they are planting raspberries in Moldova, Ukraine and in the south of Russia; in Siberia and the Urals - in the spring. 
Did you know? Raspberries are the most grown in Russia, although the climate there is not very favorable.. The harvest per year is about two hundred thousand tons.
Choosing a place
Different agricultural crops absorb various nutrients from the soil. After planting bushes on depleted soil, good fruiting is not achieved, therefore, choosing a site for planting raspberries should be approached responsibly.
Raspberry precursors can be various vegetables: cucumbers, tomatoes, pumpkins, beans, zucchini or zucchini. In the year of transplantation, it is better to plant dill, radish or lettuce - they will be cleaned at the beginning of summer, the earth will be able to rest. Also suitable place where previously grew currants or gooseberries.

Soil for transplanting raspberriesSite preparation
Preparing the soil for raspberry jam should begin a month and a half before transplanting. It is necessary to remove all plants from the selected area, carefully dig and loosen the ground. The depth of the layer to be excavated is from 10 to 50 centimeters, depending on the method of planting.
Also, the site must be abundantly fertilized with compost or humus in the proportion of 25 kilograms per square meter, as well as superphosphates and potassium salt (can be replaced with ash).
Did you know? Everyone is used to the fact that raspberries are red, less often they are yellow. But there are also black varieties, and at the end of the XIX century in Geneva brought the berry purple color.
HumusWhat shoots to take for transplanting
Having dug out all the raspberries, or part of it, you should sort out those bushes that will move to a new place. Carefully divide the roots, choose the bushes that have young, not given berries sprouts. Be sure to cut. Both old, thick shoots and weak shoots that will not survive the winter are cut. Height also need to be removed - cut so that remained 15-20 centimeters.

How to plant
Plant in two ways:
- Patching. Suitable for small raspberries. Digging holes half a meter wide and 30 centimeters deep. The distance between the pits - 60 centimeters, and between the rows - from one to one and a half.
- Ribbon. Long trenches are dug about forty centimeters deep, and half a meter wide. Bushes are planted in them at a distance of about half a meter. The distance between the furrows is one and a half meters.
Planting raspberries tape method The top layer of soil is removed and returned to the site after planting. At the bottom of the pits and trenches, the black earth mixed with ash is laid and two buckets of water are poured. If the plot is not pre-fertilized, you can fertilize during planting, according to the same scheme. Shrubs are placed in grooves, the roots are straightened. From above you need to cover the ground, slightly rammed and watered again.In addition to red raspberry varieties, yellow and black raspberries are also found in home gardening, with many beneficial properties.When the shoots grow, they will need support. It is better to install them in advance, immediately after landing: so you do not get hurt by spikes.
Supports for raspberry seedlingsHow to protect from winter frosts

- remove all leaves without damaging the kidneys;
- close the ground mulch - leaves, straw;
- to stretch the film over the shoots. It should be located almost on the ground and well fixed. At the same time it is necessary to minimize the air gap.
Important! Before wintering, it is necessary to treat the soil from the parasites hiding in it. For this purpose, solutions of "Malathion" and copper sulfate are used.As you can see, transplanting is not a very complicated process that will help preserve high yields.

Reviews from the network
But, in order for the long winter evenings of raspberries to delight you with their excellent taste, it is better to cook jam from it. Probably everyone knows that tea with raspberries can lower body temperature and acts as an anti-inflammatory agent. Therefore, it is very important to stock up on the winter natural raspberry jam. I am writing it natural, since lately raspberries are sold in stores without taste and without aroma, which can be stored for weeks. Such raspberries can hardly be called useful. She would even advise you to eat her, not to make face masks, much less to heal. Most likely this is GMO, since ordinary raspberries simply cannot be stored for so long. Already when collecting berries raspberries rammed and begins to produce juice. In general, recognize natural raspberries is not difficult. Aroma can tell you a lot. Smile
But raspberry is not only useful in medicine, it also cares for your face: it smoothes, ovevet, softens and even rejuvenates the skin. At the height of summer, it is a sin not to use the opportunities offered for the benefit of its beauty. Every morning (before washing), wipe your face with fresh raspberry juice (this is very useful for oily, porous skin).
Mask: Mash the berries into a mush. Shift 2 tbsp. spoons of gruel with 1 teaspoon of honey. Apply the mask to your face (for 12-15 minutes). If the mixture turned out to be liquid, then apply it to the fabric and put the fabric on your face. Itself tried this mask, it is very refreshing face. This is especially useful in hot weather.
