Black currant cannot be called an extremely difficult crop in terms of care and cultivation: the bush can be classified as a fairly unpretentious plant.
However, one must take into account an extremely important natural factor: since currants grow in the same place for years, the reserves of nutrients are depleted.
Because of this, the bushes look extremely "tired" and practically do not produce a normal harvest, notes landscape designer and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert for the online publication "BelNovosti".
However, with the help of one secret, you can “reanimate” plants.
Any experienced gardener knows that currants have a special weakness for potatoes. The vegetable and its waste have a colossal impact on the bush.
Even very "tired" plants can be transformed before your eyes and produce an incredible harvest.
It is best to grind the peel using a food processor or blender and bury it near the plant. In this form, the fertilizer is absorbed quickly. The product is used literally three times during the season: in early spring, summer and closer to autumn.
