Blackcurrant is one of the obligatory crops in a summer cottage, as well as raspberries. Therefore, it is important to choose a suitable place for this bush, otherwise the currant harvest will be poor.
There are several unsuccessful examples of landing that will be discussed.
Shade and groundwater
Blackcurrants are unlikely to like dense shade. They prefer moderately lit areas.
Another important point is the proximity of groundwater. Therefore, this bush will not yield a good harvest either near water bodies or in a lowland.
Neighborhood
It is also important to consider the neighboring crops growing nearby. Currants will be least happy with cereals or legumes growing nearby.
There is a high probability of competition for food, which will affect the harvest.
Soil and fertilizers
Also, currants will not grow and please the gardener if they are planted in a plot with acidic soil.
It would also be a mistake to feed the plant with fertilizers containing chlorine.
Earlier we talked about whether it is possible to determine the harvest by the size of the potato tops.
