RASPBERRY THINNING and formation of RASPBERRY DRAJONI for REPLANTING in autumn. Hello, I'm Cristian Negoiţă from Fermierul Urban, and in this clip I want to show you how I do the RASPBERRY THINNING operation, with complete explanations for both the REMONTANT RASPBERRY varieties and the flowering raspberry varieties, that is, those that bear fruit only on second year wood. And I will exemplify with my row of GLEN AMPLE RASPBERRY, which is a superb variety, with large and tasty fruits and which has no thorns at all on the stem. Basically, the raspberry shoots that come out of the row more than I want (the width of the row is 60 cm.), I remove some of them completely, cutting them from the ground level, and I turn others into DRAJONI DE RASPBERRIES that can be replanted in autumn. RASPBERRY THINNING is required! As I mentioned in the clip, the thinning of the young shoots that come out of the row is necessary, since the very high density of the shoots will decrease their growth power, and the mother plant will consume a lot of energy to support their development. RASPBERRY DRAJONI for FALL PLANTING RASPBERRY To obtain a drajon from a young raspberry shoot, it can be cut to 50 cm. from the ground level, and in this way its growth is stopped. It will still be alive, because I keep the leaves from the bottom, to continue PHOTOSYNTHESIS, but it will no longer grow and will no longer consume the energy of the mother plant. And in the fall, when the raspberries will come out of the vegetation, I will pull out that dragon fruit with all its roots and replant it in another place. RASPBERRY I have the following varieties of raspberry: POLKA RASPBERRY, POLISH RASPBERRY, VERSAILLES RASPBERRY, DELNIWA RASPBERRY. NON-BEARING RASPBERRY or FLORICANE RASPBERRY (flowering) I have the following non-blooming raspberry varieties: GLEN AMPLE RASPBERRY, LASZKA RASPBERRY DRAGONI FOR SALE If you want raspberry drajoni for autumn, leave me a comment about it and I will make a recommendation for a RASPBERRY NURSERY.
