Currant is a berry that is rich in vitamin C and iron.
It only needs a few conditions to grow.
What kind of soil is needed for currants
Choose well-drained, nutritious soil with a pH between 5.5 and 7.0 to grow berries.
If your garden soil is sandy or clayey, add organic fertilizer.
In addition, choose a sunny place in the garden to grow the shrub.
How to water currants
Currants need to be watered regularly. It is important that the soil remains slightly moist until harvest time.
If the bush does not receive enough water, diseases may appear.
Annual pruning of the plant is useful as it will help maintain the shape of the bush and increase the amount of berries produced.
Mulching keeps the soil moist and cool.
It also prevents competition with weeds.
Therefore, add additional mulch annually.
