Experienced gardeners say that currants need to be fed with potato peelings.
In this case, the bushes grow and develop normally, and also bear fruit abundantly.
The fact is that the peel of this root vegetable does not feed the bush itself, but the microorganisms that live in the soil, making them more accessible.
As a result, positive dynamics can be observed after such fertilization.
There are several ways to apply fertilizer.
For example, it is enough to simply place the peelings under the bush or dig a trench around the currant bush and the accumulated peelings can be buried there.
You can grind the dried peelings into flour and sprinkle it on the soil.
Some gardeners prefer to soak potato peels in water for 2-3 days, and then pour this mixture under the bushes.
It is important to keep in mind that this fertilizer is not suitable for those shrubs that grow near nightshades (potatoes, peppers, tomatoes or eggplants).
