What do experienced gardeners feed currants with?
The recipe for the product itself is quite simple, notes Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , landscape designer and agronomist, expert of the online publication BelNovosti.
Each bush will require a bucket of fertilizer, which consists of ten liters of water and two spoons of ammonium nitrate. The fertilizer can be replaced with urea, but the same volume will require half as much urea.
Before the procedure, it is worth watering, adding a nutrient mixture and mulching. A great option would be rotted compost.
If everything is done correctly, the currant will grow healthy and strong. With proper care, the berries grow quite large and tasty.
