Currants are not only tasty, but also very healthy. They contain a lot of vitamins, are great for snacking and making tasty preserves, such as compotes and jam.

But in order to actively prepare currant treats, you need to put some effort into growing it.

Bushes should not only be watered, treated against parasites, trimmed, but also fed. It is the last point that should be considered in more detail.

Experienced gardeners recommend using chicken manure as fertilizer.

Preparation

The fertilizer should be placed in the buds and placed under the roof on the slope so that rainwater gets there. Several small drainage holes should be made at the bottom, and additional containers should be placed next to them so that all the liquid that flows out is also used in the garden.
