How to fertilize European Red Raspberry
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your European Red Raspberry after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

I found this little beauty in my back yard. Just placed inside 4 days ago. Should I give it some fertilizer soon or wait until it recovers from the big move inside first?? Thanks #EuropeanRedRaspberry

This app makes me laugh at times. It says 4 3/4 cups of water for the big pot. It will take more the that to be fully watered. #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #GregGang #PlantAddict

Ovewatering issues..how long until recovery? #EuropeanRedRaspberry Hello, hi everyone. I really appreciate if someone can please help me? I've been keeping close watch on this Heritage raspberry due to a touch extra water it received last Monday. Almost a week later, the lower leaves started turning yellow for the past 3 days. I haven't watered since the problems began, waiting for the soil to dry out completely. Its about 2 days late of its normal watering cycle. Good news: the number of affected leaves seem to be reducing, all the shoots and tips are still fresh and greenm In supposed to replant this fella in its permanent spot. Should i wait untill it fully recover? Or is it ok to replant and let it recover there? Plant is almost 5 feet high and 6-7 months old.

Lower leaf yellowing hasnt stopped #EuropeanRedRaspberr Hi guys~ I need some help identifying some potential issues with my raspberry. Its been growing real fine since June 2024, but i've hit a speedbump. Few lower leaves been yellowing since yesterday, and it hasnt stopped. The plant is almost 4-5 feet tall growing in a fabric pot measuring 25cm width and 20cm height. Ive been told, its normal aging leaves, but does it turn yellow this quickly? Removed 7 leaves yesterday, counted 4 yellowing leaves today. It was last watered on Monday( 5 days ago). Greg advising me to water today but im waiting another extra day. The tips of the plant are still lush and green. Weather-wise? its been warming up here. Sunny, mostly Im hoping its just a minor issue such as cramped space, lack of proper lighting,etc Thank you!!

What happened? Green but wilted #EuropeanRedRaspberry Not the kind of update I wanted to see. I'm wondering what happened? It was doing fine right into week 2 However, I did remember switching on an extra growlight earlier before this happened. Could the light be too intense? Or is this an overwatering problem? I did watered 120ml yesterday which was half the amount recommended by Greg. Included before and after pics

Put in two plants last spring and got a handful of berries every other day all late June through early October! It came back nice and healthy this year and I’m excited for berry season. It does get eaten up by bugs, but spiders and some pesticides take care of it easily. It also shoots off suckers that can be propagated into new plants or I left some along the base of my berry trellis.
