Growing Tips
Raspberries are easy to grow and prefer well drained sandy soils but will tolerate many different types as long as there is good drainage. They will fruit best in full sun but will also produce decent yields in part sun. Spent canes should be pruned out and leave 6-10 of the strongest canes every 1 ft or so. Reduce the height of the canes slightly to prevent them from falling over.
