Correct planting of currants: some secrets

All berry bushes are preferable to plant inlate summer - early autumn, is no exception and currant. Planting it is also optimal in this period. If, for some reason, the planting material of the currant was purchased in a later period, the planting will depend on the weather conditions. If weather forecasts are expected to be early frosts, it will be more correct to pry the planting material horizontally until spring and plant it in the spring. If the autumn is warm, then you can plant a currant in the first decade of October.

The root system of the currant continues to grow tolate autumn. In this case, after planting, the soil under the currant must be wrapped. Mulch may be tops from tomatoes, zucchini, weeded weeds, etc. If the planting of currant is postponed until the spring, the planting pit should be prepared already in autumn.

Before planting, the material must be soaked in water(put in water) for about three hours, so that the root system is saturated with moisture. Planting currant is slanted. This applies to a bush with several stems, and to a thin rod. When planting currants, it is necessary to slip it on the bottom three buds. The above-ground part should also make up three kidneys, the rest must be cut using a well sharpened pruner.

To trim the above-ground part is necessary in order,so that the bush of the currant does not age prematurely. In the spring, the leaves will begin to open, and the root system affected by the transplant may not be able to cope with the feeding of the aerial part unless a pruning was performed in the fall. When uncircumcised aboveground part, all the nutritious juices rush to the apical bud, and on the branch do not form pads (overgrown twigs), therefore, the branch is bare, leaves on it will be only on the top. Without pruning the above-ground part during planting, the bush will begin to age in the first year.

An inclined planting of a currant is necessary in order,so that new shoots from those buds that have been buried are formed more quickly. If you plant the bush of the currant vertically, then new shoots can be expected for a long time, while the yield on the planted bush will be small.

If the planting of black currant is made correctly, it is inclined, on each stem the next year two new branches are formed. To achieve more branching of young branches, they need to be removed

apical buds. In this case, two buds nearest to the site will sprout. That is, in the fall, it is necessary to trim the lateral branches, grown over the summer, by shortening them, leaving three kidneys on each. In this way, a currant bush is formed with a lot of twigs on each shoot.

If there is a need to breed the currant, thenIn the spring, you can pin the lower branches to the soil. But the tip of the branch must be brought to the surface. To accelerate the root formation, scratches can be made on the bark of the branch and watered with a rooting agent solution (for example, heteroauxin or rootstock). Top with moistened soil. You can cover the place with a film of pinning. After a certain time, young shoots will appear from the kidneys in the soil. Throughout the season, you need to monitor the soil moisture in the place where young shoots grow. In the spring of next year, the young shoots will need to be divided and planted in a permanent place.

Correct planting of currants - a pledge of excellent harvests in the future.</ strong </ p>
