Varieties of remontant raspberries - reviews + description from the agronomist
VARIETIES OF REPAIRED RASPBERRY IN MY PLOT
The first varieties of remontant raspberries that I planted were Indian Summer and Brilliant-Ripening of berries they had in the second part of September, in some years, with the onset of early cold weather and rains, ripe berries from these varieties could not even be tasted. Over time, they were replaced by more early ripening and productive new varieties -
For many years we have been delighted with the stable autumn harvest of sweet berries by the variety Autumn Beauty, bred by Academician I.V. Kazakov.
Autumn beauty, like other varieties of Kazakov, grows well in the middle lane. The berries of this variety are large (up to 5 g), ruby-red, sweet and aromatic, they can hang on the bush without crumbling for a long time. The berries are quite dense, so they tolerate transportation well over long distances. Fruiting is not prolonged, the harvest ripens almost simultaneously, the average yield per bush is 5-7 kg.
Ivan Vasilyevich Kazakov created more than 20 varieties of remontant raspberries, each of his varieties is simply a masterpiece that just asks for the garden. The variety with the sonorous name Cap Monomakh has large berries (6-9 g, maximum up to 18 g), purple, sweet and sour.
On my site, the soil is heavy, moreover, it dries up very much in the heat.
Here, even the berries of large-fruited varieties do not gain their size, and the Monomakh's Hat stands out noticeably. The berries are simply gigantic compared to other varieties. The first berries begin to ripen at the beginning of September, so the autumn harvest does not have time to ripen completely.

The varieties Orange Miracle and Golden Domes with yellow berries on my site did not differ in either yield or size of berries. In the sun, yellow berries are baked by the sun and become ugly.
The most productive of the remontants I had was a Gift to Kashin. The berries are large, dense, with a good taste and aroma. The first berries begin to ripen at the end of July, the fruiting is extended, I really like this feature. Every day you come up to the bushes of this variety and pick fresh fragrant berries. Despite the extended fruiting, all berries fully ripen before frost.
Berries of the Caramelka variety taste like summer aromatic varieties, but at the same time the harvest ripens in the autumn months, when there is already noticeably less sun and heat. The berries are large (8-12 g), firm, juicy and very sweet. Caramel is our leader in taste among autumn varieties.
Another excellent variety is Bow to Kazakov. Differs in strong immunity to viral and fungal diseases. He is not afraid of drought, summer heat. The variety is mid-season, large-fruited, with a high yield and excellent taste. Berries weighing 6 g, sweet, with a rich aroma. They do not shrink, they keep up with each other, do not crumble. The first berries begin to ripen in early August, the main crop ripens before the onset of cold weather.
Remontant varieties of raspberries from other countries have shown themselves well. The Swiss Himbo Top undoubtedly stands out for its powerful bushes with beautiful, dense and large berries weighing up to 10-12 g. True, it does not have time to give a full harvest before the frost, and even in cold winters we have it.
The novelty of English selection, the Bryce variety, was liked only by the fact that it has erect bushes with smooth branches without thorns. The berries are large, bright red, do not crumble. But the palatability is low, perhaps there is not enough warmth.
The American variety Jacqueline showed itself well and pleased with the harvest. The berries are large, of a beautiful elongated shape, maroon, sweet, without sourness. The bush begins to bear fruit early, and the main crop has time to ripen before frost. The disadvantages include uneven ripening of berries.

Raspberries on stumps
Have you ever noticed that raspberries grow more often in the forest where there are more deadwood, rotten stumps and long-fallen trees? It turns out that some savvy gardeners, noticing the preferences of wild raspberries, began to cultivate their fruit bushes on waste wood, using the latter with benefit.
Plants absorb the necessary nutrients from the decaying woody substrate, which makes it possible to significantly reduce the application of fertilizers. Due to the good moisture holding capacity of wood, frequent watering of plantings is no longer needed, and at the same time, wood waste works as a drainage system, preventing moisture stagnation. Having created such favorable conditions for the growth of shrubs, they will less tend to grow in different directions, conquering new territories. So, in the fall, it is enough to dig a trench on the bayonet of a shovel, almost completely fill it with old boards, cut off garden branches, sawdust, uprooted stumps, it is good if all this is rotten and decaying. Residual wood can be spilled with solutions to accelerate decay processes. Then pour the soil removed from the trench on top, spill it well with water, let it settle and add more fertile soil with humus or compost and water it again. On the resulting small hill, make holes and plant prepared raspberry seedlings there.
