In this article, we will look at three effective ways to rejuvenate currant bushes and increase the harvest.
Trimming and pruning bushes
Pruning currant bushes is one of the most important stages of rejuvenation and increasing their fruitfulness, says Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
In the first year after planting, it is recommended to completely remove all flowers and berries to encourage the growth of the bush.
In the following years, in the spring, it is necessary to shorten the top of the bushes by 10-15 cm and remove dry shoots.
This will stimulate the development of new shoots and increase yields.
Top dressing and fertilization
To maintain active growth and development of currants, it requires regular application of nutrients.
In the autumn period, it is recommended to carry out complex feeding using mineral fertilizers consisting of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium.
In spring, you can use organic fertilizers, such as compost or humus, which help improve the composition of the soil and stimulate the metabolism of plants.
Regular and proper fertilization will help currant bushes rejuvenate and produce a bountiful harvest.
