In order for the currant to survive the winter well and produce a good harvest next season, it needs to be properly fed.
In October, the bush needs certain elements.
What fertilizers should you pay attention to?
Chicken manure
This is an excellent fertilizer that can be "offered" to currants. The manure is introduced in liquid form. In this case, one part of the manure is taken for fifteen parts of water.
But it can be introduced in dry form. For each square meter of plantings take 800 grams of manure.
Humus
This is a great fertilizer that can significantly improve the condition of currants. Approximately five liters of fertilizer should be applied to one bush.
Mineral fertilizers
You can "treat" each bush with a combination of 15 grams of potassium sulfate and 30 grams of superphosphate.
If the bushes are weakened
Sometimes currants need quality feeding if the bush has encountered a serious imbalance. In this case, take a bucket of humus per bush, adding at least 40 grams of potassium salt and 60 grams of superphosphate.
