It is important for every gardener to understand what kind of neighbors should be selected for currants.

First of all, you should know that red and black currants do not get along.

Incompatibility arises due to the struggle for moisture and the presence of common pests.

Some plants are carriers of diseases - they do not get sick themselves, but infect their neighbors.

Particular attention should be paid to alleopathic crops that negatively affect any crops - these are nuts, smoke tree and birch.

Coniferous trees are carriers of infections – thuja belongs to this category.

Red currants also have a so-called "personal enemy" - these are bushes with white and pink berries called Ribes rubrum.

Raspberries, blackberries and sea buckthorn are all aggressive crops that compete for moisture and come out on top.

Bird cherry is one of the most dangerous enemies for culture.
