Growing currants is common due to the many beneficial properties of the berry. Compliance with planting conditions, competent care and timely pest control will be the key to a good harvest. You need to take care of currants from spring to autumn. If everything is left to chance, the crop will inevitably fall, and the berries will become small and tasteless. Even the best varieties of currants will not be able to reach their full potential. Growing black currants is similar to growing strawberries, which also requires a lot of direct sunlight. Although the shade of the currant bush is preserved, it does not contribute to better ripening of the fruits.
