Water: Hirsute raspberry prefers well-draining soil and moderate humidity, thriving on intermittent rainfall. Water every three weeks, allowing soil to dry out. Best grown outdoors, hirsute raspberry adapts well to seasonal changes and displays robust growth aligned with water availability.
Fertilize: Fertilize hirsute raspberry with balanced or high-nitrogen fertilizers monthly in spring and summer; bi-monthly for mature plants. Use half the dose for young ones. Avoid over-fertilization to prevent damage, and adjust applications seasonally, stopping in winter. Apply diluted solutions to the root zone.
Pruning: Hirsute raspberry is a resilient, thorny shrub valued for its edible berries. Prune in early spring by removing dead or diseased canes and thinning crowded branches to enhance growth and air circulation. Focus on cutting back older canes to the base to encourage vigorous new shoots.
Propagation: Hirsute raspberry can be propagated using cuttings from healthy, non-flowering shoots. Cut a segment with leaf nodes, dip it in rooting hormone, and plant it in well-draining soil. Maintain consistent moisture and provide indirect light to promote root growth.
