Black currant

The ability to receive vitamins at any time of the year is important for every person. That is why black currant is an essential inhabitant of gardens and vegetable gardens. Its berries contain a huge amount of vitamin C. They are best eaten fresh, but they can also be dried and then added to tea and compote in the cold season. To ensure that the bush produces as much harvest as possible, carefully read the conditions for growing currants in this section.

Please note that black currant requires ordinary care and is a picky plant. In the spring, the rows between the bushes should be well loosened, and further loosening should be carried out as the top layer of soil dries out and when weeds appear. In the southern regions, currants must be watered.

To obtain a good harvest, regular feeding will be required, especially for bushes with high yields. Don’t forget about pruning the bush: there shouldn’t be too much thickening. But remember, pruning must be done correctly! You will learn how to do this in this section.
