Planting and care

Plant the Redcurrant bush from October to March. It thrives in ordinary soils, even poor ones, without too much limestone. The Redcurrant bush prefers well-drained soil, cool but not constantly wet. As the Redcurrant bush is sensitive to heat and drought, plant it in full sun in northern regions or in partial shade in the south. Choose a location sheltered from strong winds. During planting, space the plants 1.20m (4ft) apart in all directions. Soak the root ball in water for a few moments before planting. Dig a hole, incorporate decomposed manure or well-rotted compost into the soil, place the plant and cover with soil. Water generously, then mulch the soil to retain moisture in summer. An application of organic fertilizer at the start of vegetation will support fruit production and plant health. It is a accommodating bush, not very susceptible to diseases. It has a few enemies, such as aphids, which can be eliminated by spraying soapy water or a garlic decoction. In case of powdery mildew attack, spray Bordeaux mixture. In June-July, protect the harvest with nets to deter birds. To get rid of raspberry worms, sometimes present on redcurrants as well, you can sow forget-me-nots along the plantation; they are reputed to repel them. In a redcurrant plantation, as in any plantation, it is important to alternate varieties and species, when space allows; pollination will be favored, and the spread of epidemics or diseases will be limited.

Care

Pruning instructions Fruiting mainly occurs on one- and two-year-old branches. Pruning the currant bush is important as it promotes better fruiting and facilitates harvesting. During the first two years after planting, keep only 2 to 3 buds on the main branches, if possible leaving the outermost eye to encourage a spreading habit. In the following years, only prune the current year's shoots without touching the fruiting organs. Lateral branches should be pinched above the fifth leaf in July. In February, keep only 10 to 12 main branches and remove all others at ground level; shorten the main branches by one-third of their length. This February pruning will allow one-third of the stems to be renewed each year. Clear the center of the plant during pruning to allow air and light to circulate in the middle.
