Raspberry Fertilizing Needs. Raspberry fertilizing needs are very basic and not hard to keep up with. Raspberry plant fertilizer should be heavy in nitrogen, although a balanced type is often preferred. For instance, the best fertilizer for raspberry bushes is a 10-10-10 fertilizer or actual nitrogen at a rate of 4 or 5 pounds per 100 feet of row.
Once they are planted, raspberries are low maintenance fruits but they do require attention a few times during each season. Pruning is required once a year at different times for autumn and summer fruiting raspberries. Raspberries are water hungry plants so mulching at the beginning of each season is advised. In dry weather they will require watering especially when the fruits are forming. Feeding is also needed. Summer fruiting raspberries will need to be tied into supports during the year.
