The yield of currants can be significantly increased by burying rusty nails under the bushes.
How it works is explained by the expert of the online publication Belnovosti, scientist-agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
Why bury nails under currants
Not only rusty nails are buried under currants, but also coils of wire, tin cans, and other metal objects.
This is done to saturate the soil with iron, which plays an important role in the life of plants.
Iron deficiency leads to the development of various diseases, including chlorosis, which causes a sharp decrease in yield.
Currants also respond well to watering with “rusty” water from a barrel containing metal waste containing iron.
Earlier, the expert told how to care for bulbous flowers in the spring.
