Lots of large and tasty currants – what could be better for a summer resident? These berries can be turned into healthy jam or compote.

To ensure that the currant harvest is rich and that you have a lot of preparations, it is important to follow some rules.

An expert of the MOS SMI portal, agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh will tell you what needs to be done.

Regular watering

Currants love moisture, so they need to be watered often, especially during hot periods. A lack of water can lead to the appearance of small berries.

Selecting a location

A good place to plant currants is a site in partial shade. The location of the bush on the sunniest side can have a negative effect on the harvest.

Distance between bushes

Currants grow well in a spacious place where there are no other plants nearby. The optimal distance between plants is 2 meters.

Slightly acidic soil

Currants grow well in slightly acidic soil. To ensure that the soil is just like this, it is important to add certain fertilizers. For example, you can use rotted sawdust.
