It is important to remember that berry bushes need nutrients throughout the autumn.

Gooseberry is no exception.

You just need to correctly determine the needs of the berry bush in order to provide it with the necessary elements.

What fertilizers in October can be considered the best for gooseberries?

Potassium

This element is necessary for the gooseberry to recover and produce a decent harvest by next year. Once every three years, it is customary to add a liter of ash under each bush. This is a decent source of potassium.

Also in October you can "delight" the gooseberry with potassium sulfate: 20 grams of the preparation per square meter will be enough.

Superphosphate

Also, autumn application of superphosphate will allow you to improve the taste of gooseberries. One large spoon of fertilizer is taken per bush.
