The plantations were now kept as free as possible from weed by hand weeding and hoeing until the month of June arrive when the soil was raked over by the hand rake several times until there was a dust mulch created. The dust mulch prevented cracking on the soil and prevented it from drying up. The raspberry like a moist soil and produce an abundant crop during a thriving summer.
