I would use a thick mulch of done or undone compost as my number one choice!
Then you might want to use a slightly acidic tea around the roots made from a few tblsp of apple cider vinegar or powdered sulfur, plus several tblsp of molasses, per gallon of compost tea as a soil drench every 2-3 weeks.
(In other words just make and use Garrett Juice!) |

| I spread compost around my blackberries and sprayed with garrett juice and within 1-2 days they were growing like crazy! |
