Am tăiat zmeura în octombrie și am lăsat doar 6 tulpini. La vară s-au rupt crengile de atâtea fructe! • Newsweek România

Pruning raspberry plants in October can significantly enhance fruit yield by directing energy to fewer, healthier canes. Many gardeners mistakenly leave too many canes, leading to competition for light and nutrients. After harvesting summer varieties, old canes should be cut back to the ground, while weak or damaged new canes should be removed, leaving about six strong ones. This practice improves air circulation and sunlight penetration, resulting in stronger plants and better fruit quality. October is the ideal time for this maintenance, using sharp, disinfected tools to prevent disease spread.
