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.
The four types of raspberries commonly grown in home gardens include black, purple, summer-bearing red, and fall-bearing red. There are also several yellow raspberry varieties (cultivars). Raspberries are adaptable to a wide range of soil types.
