At first glance, it seems that currants can grow in almost any part of the garden.
However, this opinion is erroneous, and not every neighbor is suitable for currants.
Agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh told us which “neighbors” will only harm currants and deprive you of a good harvest.
According to the expert, such companions can provoke the appearance of a large number of parasitic insects and pathogenic fungi in your garden.
Neighborhood with gooseberries
Gooseberries attract a large number of pests with their attractive aroma.
In addition, this crop often suffers from fungal diseases that can spread to currants.
Neighborhood with raspberries, blackberries and sea buckthorn
All of the above mentioned crops are known primarily for the fact that they form a lot of shoots.
Such plants will simply crowd out the currants, and they will eventually die.
Neighborhood with bird cherry
This companion is the worst and most dangerous for currants.
The fact is that bird cherry is very often attacked by glassworms, which are never averse to feasting on sweet currant berries.
Previously, we talked about what the lazy method of growing garlic is.
