Every summer resident dreams of a rich harvest of fruits and vegetables, but at the same time wants less fuss with the plants.
Various diseases of the bush cause a lot of trouble for gardeners who grow currants.
However, experienced gardeners have identified varieties that are less likely to get sick. There are two proven varieties. Many gardeners recommend them.
"Selechinskaya-2"
The variety is resistant to anthracnose and powdery mildew. The variety is distinguished by good yield - up to two 10-liter buckets of berries from one adult plant.
In addition, summer residents have noticed that “Selechinskaya-2” is resistant to bud mites and a number of other pests.
"Dobrynya"
Another variety that regularly makes it to the top is named after a legendary hero. Large fruits and resistance to diseases have made this variety popular among amateur gardeners.
But resistance to diseases and pests is not the main criterion when choosing a currant variety.
The taste of the berries is also important. In this respect, "Belorusskaya Sladkaya" is the leader. However, the variety is more susceptible to diseases.
