Harvesting is a raspberry.

Hello everybody. Today we went to the country house to pick up raspberries and apricots. This year, the harvest of raspberries is super .... very much.

I will tell a little about raspberries how to plant and when to colle. The first crop (in the second year after planting raspberries) is insignificant. In full fruiting this culture enters the fourth year after planting. Fruiting period of raspberry is stretched. Raspberries begin to ripen in the second half of July, and their collection ends in August. The bulk of the harvest is harvested in the first 20 days.

During the most intense ripening of berries, they are collected every 1-2 days, depending on the weather conditions.

Raspberries are very tender, with careless handling of them strongly wrinkle and quickly deteriorate. Tearing berries follows along with the peduncle, in this form they better tolerate the transport. Remove the berry should be ripe, but not overripe. If berries immediately come for processing (cooking jam, jam, juice, etc.), then you can remove them without a peduncle.
For collection, use a basket or sieve with a capacity of 2-4 kg. Tara large sizes are not suitable, since the berries lying on the bottom will crumble. You can not pour berries from one basket (or sieve) into another. Sick and damaged berries are deposited in a separate container. I used a plastic bottle and cut it off under my throat.

If necessary, they can be stored for several days in a cold, well-ventilated area, preferably in a refrigerator or on a glacier, where at a temperature of 0 °, berries can be kept for up to five days.
