Currants may retain a slight sour taste, as this is a distinctive feature of the product.
However, sometimes currants grow too sour, which makes them difficult to eat fresh.
Not all summer residents know that the situation can be corrected with the help of regular fertilizer, says Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, a landscape designer and agronomist.
What available means are we talking about?
As it turns out, regular potato starch can have a positive effect on the taste of currant berries. The surprising fact is that this substance can significantly improve the health of the bush, making it stronger and more resistant to diseases.
Also, thanks to the starch, the currant will yield more than usual. However, you should not use the product from the store - this option does not bring any benefit.
As a rule, summer residents simply bury dry potato peels.
What other remedy can be highlighted?
First, you will need to collect enough white bread. The product is dried and sent to a container with water. Also, a little more sugar is added (about 50 grams).
The mixture needs to be stirred and left to sit for a bit.
Afterwards, you need to water the plants at the moment when the ovaries begin to actively fill out.
