PLANTING YOUR RASPBERRY ROOTSTOCK

Starting raspberries from roots is an economical way to establish a raspberry planting. Rootstock can produce more canes than purchasing established bare-root raspberry canes, at a lower cost.

You can get a head start by planting the roots in a heated greenhouse, sunroom, or sunny window. For outdoor planting, wait until the soil temperature is above 40°F.

If your garden soil is too wet or cold to work, you can start the roots in containers:

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

2. Place 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 plants approximately four containers, according to the seller's planting guideline.

GROWTH AND FRUITING INFORMATION

The seller reports that 8 ounces of Joan J 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 production estimate is based on 8 ounces of rootstock and is not a guaranteed cane count for this 4-ounce package.

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