- 1). Locate a space in the woods that can accommodate your raspberry plants. You can either fit one plant between trees, or clear a space for several plants.
- 2). Dig a hole for your raspberry plant that is twice as big around as the pot it is in.
- 3). Examine the soil. Some woodland soils are rich in organic material, due to years of leaf build-up. Raspberries will grow in poor soil, but they will not produce as well as if their soil is nutrient-rich.
- 4). Place your raspberry plant in the hole and back fill it with compost if you're not sure about the quality of the soil. If the soil looks rich, use it to fill the hole.
- 5). Compact the soil with your foot around the base of the plant.
- 6). Water the plant deeply at least once a week.
- 7). Fertilize your raspberry plant with an all-purpose fertilizer when you plant it, and again later in the season to promote healthy plant growth and encourage large fruit production. Follow the manufacturer's directions.
