Raspberry Problems

9 years ago

Last spring I planted raspberries. They only grew to about a foot in the first year. I assumed they were getting established. This spring, new canes came up, but they are still only 2-6" tall. I'm in MD. My mom's plants in NJ are already knee high.

I suspect that the soil might be the problem (although wild brambles grow nearby). I think it might not be draining well enough (there is some pooling during good rains).

Is there anything I can do after the plants are in the ground? I could obviously have amended the soil before planting...but too late for that.
