The objectives of the research consist in assessing the intensity of the processes that determine the physiological growth of raspberry plants of the Delniwa variety and the Opal variety, which influence the fruiting process and the production of fruits per plant. In the framework of the experiment, the growth and fruiting of the two raspberry varieties under the influence of climatic factors from the experimental location of the raspberry culture established in 2023 within the INMA Bucharest was monitored. Thus, observations were made on the development of the main phenophases of the vegetative organs (foliar) from which the leaves and shoots developed and the fruiting organs (generative / floriferous) from which the flowers developed, hence the harvest. For both varieties, five representative plants of each variety were chosen for monitoring, from which the following parameters were measured every month of the crop's evolution: the number of shoots, the length and diameter of the stem, the sizes of the fruits and receptacles, as well as the accumulated amounts of fruits specific to each variety analyzed.
