Gooseberry varieties differ in a number of indicators and characteristics.
Many people prefer varieties that can be eaten directly as a dessert.
Others prefer varieties that will later be used for processing.
However, in both cases it is important to take into account the yield factor, notes the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
What are 3 difficulties that may arise?
Impoverished soil without fertilizers
Many people believe that gooseberries can survive for many years without fertilizing, since a sufficient amount of nutrients was added during planting.
This is a misconception.
The bush needs to be generously fed at least once a year.
Lack of care procedures
It is important to remember that gooseberries need to be pruned periodically. This will not only increase the yield, but will also have a positive effect on the overall development of the plant.
Watering
Not everyone knows that lack of moisture is one of the main reasons why gooseberries are extremely reluctant to bear fruit.
The whole point is that the plant has a superficial root system.
Therefore, in hot weather, do not forget about the need for high-quality watering.
