Experienced gardeners recommend fertilizing currant bushes using organic products.

For example, rotted manure or compost.

You can also use nutritional yeast, potato peels, wood ash, or nettle infusion as fertilizer.

Scatter wood ash (100 g per bush) under the bushes, cover with earth and loosen with a rake.

After this, the bush should be watered.

To provide the plant with adequate nutrition, you can combine organic and mineral fertilizers.

Among the most effective mineral fertilizers, professionals highlight nitrogen-containing fertilizers, as well as potassium sulfate.

If you do not have the opportunity to prepare fertilizers of plant or animal origin, you can use ready-made store-bought complexes.
