HOW TO START YOUR ROOTSTOCK

Raspberry rootstock is an economical way to start a raspberry planting. It can produce more canes than purchasing established bare-root raspberry canes, at a lower cost.

You can start the roots in a heated greenhouse, sunroom, or sunny window for an early start. Alternatively, plant outdoors when the soil temperature is above 40°F.

If your garden soil is too wet or cold to work, you can:

1. Plant the roots about 1/4 inch deep in containers.

2. Place the containers in a warm, sunny location.

3. Water regularly while the roots establish.

4. After approximately 3–4 months, transplant the growing plants into their permanent garden location.

One ounce of roots is enough to plant approximately four containers, according to the seller's planting guideline.

GROWTH AND FRUITING

The seller reports that 8 ounces of rootstock can produce approximately 24–36 new canes during the first year. With proper care, those canes can grow more than 3 feet tall. This is an example based on the 8-ounce quantity, not a guaranteed production count for this 2-ounce package.

The resulting plants can bear fruit, with timing and production depending on establishment, growing conditions, and care. With proper care, a raspberry patch may remain productive for more than 15 years.
