How to transplant raspberry plants in the garden to continue growing in a new location.

Total Time: 20

Cost: $0

Prepare new location by digging 18" wide x 12" deep hole and watering deeply.
Trim raspberry canes down to approximately 10-inches.
Dig up plant and roots working at least 12-inches from plant all the way around and place in bucket. It's fine to trim away longer roots.
Plant in new location by placing plant at original soil depth.
Gently spread roots and cover with soil. Press into place removing any air pockets.
Water deeply. Top up soil as needed. Add mulch to prevent soil from drying out.
Keep watered (but not too much). New growth should appear in 2-4 weeks.
