Raspberries in tubs...what compost/soil?
Options
Sorry, I know it's been asked before but I cannot find the answer by searching in the awful new format...
Have just bought 4 good size raspberry canes (2 each ot Tulamore & Autumn Bliss) and 4 large tubs, but I'm not sure what to plant them into? Top soil? Compost? John Innes no.3? Mix of all / any?

Bought compost can be difficult to re-wet if it dries out.I would do a mix of bought compost and JI No 3 or top soil and HM compost if you have those.0
