Landing

Currant of this variety grows well on fertile soils - loamy, sandy loam. It is important to avoid the proximity of groundwater. The place should be sunny, well-lit most of the time. It is recommended to purchase seedlings at the age of 1-2 years. They are transferred to the ground at the end of September or in the 1st decade of October.

Landing pits are prepared at a distance of 1.5 m from each other. It is recommended to dig up the soil in this place in the spring with humus, making at least 10 kg per 1 m2. This will allow to increase the fertility of insufficiently nutritious soil by autumn. Before planting in the pits, you can additionally lay 100-200 g of complex mineral fertilizers.

It is enough to dig holes shallow, up to 40 cm deep and 50 cm in diameter. Drainage can be used on poorly permeable soils. A currant seedling is placed in a hole filled with 3/4 of a fertile substrate, its roots are straightened. The root collar should be 5-7 cm below the edge of the fossa. After that, they fall asleep, compacting the soil layers, produce abundant watering and pruning the bush, preserving up to 5 buds.

Not a single garden plot can do without currants. This fragrant and healthy berry is very popular. When planting currants, you need to take into account many factors and nuances. It is necessary to choose the right planting material, determine the location, and competently prepare the soil.

Growing and care

Watering Bayan's currants needs moderate watering, but it is better not to allow the soil to dry out, otherwise the berries will be dry and not juicy enough. In the middle lane, plants have enough natural precipitation. During the flowering period, watering is carried out once a week, with the introduction of 20-30 liters of moisture per 1 m2. In the south, for a longer preservation of moisture, it is worth resorting to mulching with a layer of 5-7 cm. You can use straw, shavings, and other natural materials.

And also because of the tendency of the crown to thicken, it needs regular pruning, thinning of excess shoots. In temperate regions, plants may need shelter for the winter. It is necessary to feed the plants no earlier than 2-3 years from the moment of planting. In the spring, the soil is saturated with nitrogen, in the form of urea - 15-20 g / m2 each. With the onset of summer, you can add organic feed from 10 liters of water and 1 liter of mullein infusion.

Foliar dressing will also be useful for the shrub. In June, you can spray plantings with a mixture based on zinc sulfate and manganese, boric acid, copper sulfate. Such measures will also be useful in the prevention of fungal diseases. In autumn, after fruiting, up to 10 kg of humus per 1 m2 are laid under the bushes. And it would also be nice to add 120 g of superphosphate, 50 g of potassium chloride and a complex fruit and vegetable mixture when digging.

The most important step in caring for currants is the correct moisture of the crop throughout the growing season. Due to errors in watering, you can lose most of the crop and get small and tasteless berries.
Pruning is an indispensable element of caring for any fruit shrubs, including currants. If you carry out this agrotechnical procedure at the optimal time and do it correctly and regularly, the result will not slow down to affect the quality and quantity of berries grown.
Competent preparation of currants for winter is the key to a good harvest for next year. Autumn care for currants and preparation for cold weather includes the following stages: pruning, watering, feeding, treatment from diseases and pests, shelter.
In the process of growing currants, timely feeding is an important part of care. Organic and mineral elements are necessary not only for the harmonious growth of the bush, but also for the formation of the crop.
