Apply a balanced fertilizer, such as a 10-10-10, at a rate of 15 to 20 pounds of fertilizer per 1,000 square feet of planting. If using the hill system, apply about one-half cup per plant. Don't fertilize raspberries in late summer or early fall as it may force new growth that does not harden off properly for winter.
Prepare the soil for sowing by preparing planting pockets. Space the plants 60 - 120 cm apart (depending on variety). Dig a hole 30 cm deep by 30 cm wide and fill with a mixture of well rotted manure and soil.Mound the top of the hole by 6 cm to make a ridge and sprinkle fertiliser over the surface.pace the plants 60 - 120 cm apart (depending on variety).
