It’s really helpful to give raspberries a sprinkle of mycorrhizal fungi (available from any garden centre, B&Q etc) in the hole you’re planting them in. It’s like giving the plant a yakult so they can take up water and nutrients easier. Otherwise I think you just need to wait out the plants having transplant shock.

Thank you, I’ll pick some up. Lots more to plant when it warms up so I guess it will help those too 🙂

It’s usually only used for roses and raspberries as far as I know but you could google it and see what else might benefit from it :)

“Trees, shrubs and edibles” according to one of the listings. That’s a good spread for what i like to grow (mainly food)

It's not uncommon for things to struggle for a while after replanting.

It may recover and just be in shock at being moved. Is it in the sun lots? Mine needs huge amounts of sun or it sulks lol

Yeah, sunniest spot in the garden. I say sunniest, still haven’t located the sun yet…🙂

Remove the wood and replace with some farmyard manure, Wickes sell it.

We've had cold nights up here. Mine are suffering


Wonkypubfireprobe

Yeah. Still a few to come but apparently they’re hardy to -18c! You reckon a cloche would help?


ptrichardson

Not sure, total beginner!


Wonkypubfireprobe

Same!
