Employees of the Moscow Institute of Horticulture managed to combine the Shtambovy-1 and Stolichnaya varieties in order to obtain a completely new type of garden culture. The fruits of the Tarusa raspberry, also known as K 50, have received universal application. They are used to make compotes, jams and preserves. They are also eaten in their natural form or frozen.

Description of the variety

The shrubs are neat, standard and compact. The variety has an active growth force. Plants reach a height of 2 meters. It is not necessary to tie the shoots, they are quite strong and strong to keep the entire crop on themselves. The color of the branches is green, with a slight purple tint. The thorns are practically absent. The green mass consists of large leaves with bright and expressive veins.

Ripening terms

The repair variety bears the harvest several times per season. The berries are harvested 4-5 times during the growing season. Raspberry Tarusa is medium late and bears fruit from early July to autumn. The exact dates may change depending on weather conditions.

Yield

Garden culture pleases with a high yield, up to 7 kilograms of berries per plant and up to 20 tons per hectare for commercial cultivation. The fruits have excellent keeping quality and transportability.

Berries and their taste

Ripe berries turn red with a characteristic dark pink tint. They have the shape of a blunt cone. Raspberries are large, 2 to 2.5 cm wide and 2.5-5 cm long. In weight, the fruits gain from 15 to 20 grams.

Many summer residents highly appreciated the taste of the Tarusa variety. Ripe berries are sweet, but not sugary, with a pleasant sour aftertaste. The pulp is dense in consistency, while tender, with medium juiciness. The pronounced berry aroma complements the gastronomic quality.

Ripe raspberries can be stored for a long time without losing their appearance and taste. The fruits do not crumble and remain on the stalks for a long time after ripening.

How to choose a raspberry seedling
Due to its unpretentiousness, raspberries live in almost every garden plot. But in order to get tasty berries, you must first plant a healthy and strong seedling. In nurseries, shops and private sellers, you can find a huge assortment of seedlings, but how to determine their quality and be sure of the abundance of fruiting already upon purchase?

Growing features

Due to its high winter hardiness and drought resistance, growth easily took root in different regions of the country, regardless of their climate. The variety is self-fertile, therefore, in the process of pollination, it uses only the pollen of its own flowers. You need to grow raspberries in spacious areas, leaving a gap of 1.8 to 2 meters between the rows. The best growing regions are the Urals, the middle zone of Russia, the south or Siberia. Tarusa loves moderate watering.

Shrubs are planted in spring or autumn. When choosing the first option, the work must be done as soon as possible.

Site selection and soil preparation

When choosing a territory for planting a standard plant, certain requirements should be adhered to.

  • An area illuminated by the sun or with partial shade is great. Insufficient illumination leads to a deterioration in the quality of the berries.

  • Drafts and strong winds negatively affect the health of plants. You can save the landing with tall buildings or fences.

  • If raspberries or plants from the Solanaceae family used to grow on the selected area, you should choose a different location. Tarusa feels great next to apple trees.

  • For regular fruiting, raspberries are planted in fertile soil. The ideal option is sandy loam or loamy soil enriched with organic matter. To make the soil looser, sand is added to it.

A suitable acidity level is 5.8-6.2 pH. If this figure is higher, lime is added to the soil. The procedure is carried out in advance. Ground levels should be located at a depth of no more than one meter so that the roots do not suffer from excess moisture.

A plentiful and high-quality harvest in the future depends on the correct technology of planting a raspberry bush. It is necessary to choose the right planting material, determine the location and prepare the site.
Raspberry garter is a difficult and painstaking task. This requires time and imagination. But on the other hand, the benefits from this process are enormous. Thanks to the garter, the fruits ripen more intensively and regularly. Bushes are much less deformed, branches do not break off. After the garter, the berries are better preserved, and the greatest achievement at the same time is the convenience of harvesting.
The raspberry pruning process is an essential and essential part of caring for your garden and the key to harvesting large, juicy berries. Without pruning, raspberry shoots lose their strength and cease to bear fruit. It is very easy to avoid thickening of the raspberry tree: you only need pruning - in the spring, summer and autumn months.

Watering and feeding

Moderate watering is needed not only for the formation of juicy fruits, but also for the full development of raspberries. In the hot season, the raspberry plant is irrigated at least once a week. With regular precipitation, watering is not needed. With excessive moisture, the berries become sour and watery.

The roots are located at a depth of about 25-30 centimeters, so the water should reach this mark. When irrigating, it is advisable to mulch and loosen the soil. A layer of mulch prevents moisture from evaporating quickly, reducing the amount of watering. The natural layer decays, feeding the soil with useful microelements. The top layer becomes looser and air exchange improves. Urea is widely used. It is often mixed with herbal teas.

You need to fertilize the fruit crop regularly. Top dressing is needed not only for a tasty harvest, but also to maintain plants during the wintering period. Each of the types of fertilizers has certain characteristics. Nitrogen activates green mass gain. The leaves become bright and large. Throughout the season, 3-4 dressings are performed, taking a break of 2 weeks between procedures. The first time the shrubs are fed during bud break.

One of the conditions for proper care of raspberries is proper watering. The rules for watering raspberries are the same for all varieties and varieties of this garden plant. Moistening should be carried out if the soil has dried out by 5 cm or more.
One of the most important conditions for growing large and sweet raspberries is timely fertilization. For each stage of development of the raspberry bush, different feeding is required. Fertilizers that are used at the beginning of the growing season of the plant are not suitable during flowering and ripening of berries.

Frost resistance and preparation for winter

Healthy and strong shrubs can withstand frosts down to -30 degrees. If in the regions the thermometers do not fall below this mark, it is not necessary to cover the plants for the winter. However, in regions with unstable or more severe climates, plants should be bent to the ground, where they will remain under the snow cover. And also non-woven fabric is used.

Preparing raspberries for winter is another of the stages of berry care.If you start preparing raspberries for wintering in time, then next year you will get a rich harvest of delicious and sweet berries. Winter preparation activities include pruning, feeding, pest control, watering and shelter.

Diseases and pests

Breeders have developed a variety that is not afraid of diseases and insect pests. Even infected shrubs can surprise with a stable harvest. Raspberries are not afraid of purple spot, common pests, gall midges. Summer residents point to the resistance of the garden culture to adverse weather conditions. To keep the plants from getting sick, they need regular and proper care, especially in capricious weather.

Unfortunately, raspberries, like other plants, do not bypass various diseases and pests. Only by armed with the knowledge and the necessary means for this, you can cope with such troubles. To help the plant, it is very important to be able to recognize the disease in time and begin timely treatment.

Reproduction

The Tarusa variety is propagated by standard methods that are used for other types of raspberries. You can increase the number of shrubs by cuttings or root shoots. The second option is chosen more often for the reason that it is simple and best suited for novice gardeners, without experience. The reproduction process consists in the separation of the root growth. Young raspberries are dug up together with an earthen clod and planted on a new site.

Both green and lignified cuttings are used to renew the berry plantation. Shoots are separated from the mother bush and rooted. The resulting seedlings are transplanted to a permanent growing place. Many summer residents sprout cuttings in greenhouses.

If you do not want to spend time and energy on growing seedlings, you can buy ready-made seed material. It should be purchased only in special nurseries that grow strong and healthy plants.

There are many ways to breed raspberries. Raspberries can be diluted with root cuttings, lignified cuttings and root cuttings. Regardless of the method of berry propagation, a number of requirements must be observed to ensure the receipt of high-quality planting material.
