All berry bushes need special care in the autumn period in order to survive the winter well and produce an excellent harvest next year.

One of the main care options is fertilization.

The process must be carried out correctly.

What are the important points to highlight?

Determine the right time

You should not feed currants ahead of time or add nutrients at a time when they will be useless.

It is best to start fertilizing at the end of this month and continue fertilizing into October.

It is always worth strictly following the instructions and not adding more of the preparation than the manufacturer specifies. Otherwise, you can simply harm the currants.

Be careful when loosening

Some of the nutrients must be placed in the soil within the tree trunk circle so that the currants receive adequate nutrition.

But it is always worth remembering that the roots of berry bushes are often not located so deep. Therefore, be careful when loosening the soil.
