How to fertilize American 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 American Red Raspberry after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Is it ok to rewater hydrophobic soil? #EuropeanRedRaspberry Ok picture this: you watered your plant, but later you realised most of parts of the soil beneath repels water. What do you do? Is it ok to rewater? Coz i dont want to be overwatering.

What are these pests (and are they even bugs?) Hello, when I was inspecting the plant (while cutting off rust infected leaves) I noticed little black specks on the leaves and also some webs (?), does anyone recognize these? #PestControl #Blackberry

Either the cats found a new snack, or the wind is too much for this guy. (We have been getting gusts reaching the lower forties here). Other one’s leaves are still here thankfully. #NotSoHappyPlants

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

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

How deep should I check on how dry it is before watering? #EuropeanRedRaspberry #GregGang #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #HappyPlants #OutsidePlants #OutdoorGrowing We had 🌧️ the day after I potted it and the app say to 🚿 it in 3 days. Yes I marked it as 💦 after the ☔️.
