In any case, if no measures are taken, the harvest will be poor.

How to fight

1. If the currants have not been looked after, then you need to normalize watering, as high humidity could provoke the appearance of fungus.

2. If it is a pest, then it is most likely a tick that feeds on the sap of the bush.
A large generation of pests causes blisters to appear.

3. If the cause is a disease, then you need to start at the early stages, since it will be easier to dispose of a neglected bush so as not to infect other plants in the garden.

Chemical or biological preparations are used for processing.

In any case, affected leaves or branches must be removed.

It is equally important to monitor fertilizing and apply not only organic but also mineral fertilizers to strengthen the bush’s immunity.
