Currant – one of the most useful berries. But often it needs our help and leaving. The bundle tick is the most dangerous wrecker on currant. To save this berry from such misfortune, it is necessary to know some features of care for plant.
Instruction
1. When choosing planting stock it is necessary to pay attention to buds of plant at once. As generally landing of currant is carried out in the early spring, at this time it is already possible to see the healthy and infected kidneys on branches.
2. The kidneys injured by tick differ from healthy markedly. They are much larger than normal, have rounded shape, slightly flat. Externally they are similar to small cabbage kochanchik. In them females of tick winter and lay eggs there. Subsequently these kidneys are not dismissed, and are loosened.
3. It is difficult to struggle with bundle tick, but it is possible. Prevention needs to begin to be carried out in the early spring. In April it is attentive to see each branch of bush. If there were unhealthy kidneys, then they need to be collected by hands and to burn. If damage by tick rather big, then it is necessary to cut sick branches of bush and also to burn them.
4. It is necessary to clear the soil under bush of currant of fallen leaves in the fall and to loosen properly. Then to zamulchirovat compost or peat. The good effect gives the shelter of the place under bush black film or special ukryvny material. In this case weeds and most of wreckers which winter in the soil will not annoy, will not be able to make the way in the spring outside.
5. It is possible to apply chemical means to fight against bundle tick probably, but then insects who pollinate plant will die. And it not in the best way will affect harvest and our health too.
