Why Grow Goji Berries?

Goji berries, also known as wolfberries, are prized for their high levels of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. They are a versatile fruit, perfect for eating fresh, drying for snacks, or adding to recipes for a nutritional boost.

Planting Goji Berries

  • Location: Choose a sunny spot with well-draining soil.
  • Soil Preparation: Goji berries thrive in slightly alkaline soil with a pH of 6.8-8.0. Amend soil with compost to improve fertility.
  • Spacing: Space plants 3-5 feet apart to allow for proper growth and airflow.
  • Planting Depth: Dig a hole twice as wide and the same depth as the root ball, and gently place the plant in the hole.

Care Tips for Goji Berries

  • Watering: Water regularly during the growing season, keeping the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Reduce watering in winter.
  • Pruning: Prune during dormancy to remove dead or damaged branches and promote healthy growth.
  • Fertilizing: Use a balanced organic fertilizer in early spring to encourage fruit production.
  • Mulching: Apply a layer of mulch to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.

Harvesting Goji Berries

Goji berries are typically ready to harvest in late summer or early fall. Pick the berries when they are bright red and fully ripe. Handle them gently to avoid bruising the delicate fruit.
