Many gardeners and summer residents are surprised that the indicator of productivity of currant falls every year. Berries become smaller by the size and maturing at them not simultaneous.
To such negative processes the wrong cutting of currant family of bushes or even in general its total absence can be the reason. But such situation is not limited to one problem. The maturing speed, intensity of coloring and the size of berries of currant are influenced also by other factors. It first of all fertility of soil, incorrectly held agrotechnical events, adverse weather conditions, age of escapes, defeat of bushes different diseases and parasites.
Besides different maturing of berries on bushes can depend on high-quality features. The berry overload is characteristic of some grades of currant. At the same time branch without having sustained such loading, can not only will bend, but also to lay down completely on the earth. Such grades demand garter.
For thickened bushes characteristic slow coloring of berries and also process of their maturing slows down. The correct and timely cutting of currant family of bushes promotes uniform maturing of all harvest. If the bush is cut not in due time off, most likely, it will begin to grow old quickly.
Incorrectly held agrotechnical events contribute in most cases to the development of diseases. Most of gardeners practice obkapyvaniye of bushes, weeding by chopper. All of them forget about finding of roots of currant practically at the surface of the soil. Thereby the root system of bushes is strongly damaged by such weeding and obkapyvaniye. Considerable damages promote deterioration and easing of immunity of currant that provokes appearance of various diseases. Therefore such agrotechnical actions should be postponed away. It will be better to use toothed choppers, and on the site where there are no slugs, soil mulching will be reasonable. Mulching will help to keep moisture in the soil. As practice has shown, such actions considerably change situation in positive side. Diseases disappear, and bushes of currant begin to fructify.
Defeat of currant by wreckers leads to crushing of berries and also to developing of different diseases, including fungal. Many troublesome problems to gardeners are caused by caterpillars.
