How to get rid of Red spots on Currant in the simplest way. In addition, it will increase the yield of berries by several times.

Every gardener knows that currant berry bushes require treatment no less reverent and serious than a decorative rose. And one of the most formidable problems that you can face is red spots on a currant leaf.

As an opponent of store chemistry, I turned to botanical scientific books and realized what a harmless and cheap remedy is effective for treating a plant.

The main reason for this change in the color of greens is the fungal disease anthracnose, to which currants are susceptible from July to the end of summer. In addition to redness, the leaves dry up and fall off, and in advanced cases, even young shoots with tied berries perish.

The second reason is the red-gall aphid, which leaves similar red-brown spots with bulges, but is still noticeable, of course, by the presence of the pests themselves on the underside of the leaf.

Guided by my own experience, I want to emphasize that this aphid almost never harms black and golden currants.

It would seem that the sources of the problem are completely different! But you can prepare one remedy for them. Moreover, it can be used both with existing redness and for preventive purposes!

To prepare it you will need:

1. Chop 2 cups of garlic cloves.

2. Dry 1 kg of onion skins.

3. Gain 2 kg of tomato tops.

4. Pour garlic with 2 liters of boiling water and set aside for 2 days, drain.

5. Pour the onion with 3 liters of boiling water, set aside for 2 days, strain.

6. Pour the tops of 5 liters of water, boil for 3 hours and strain.

7. Mix all three infusions, dilute with water in proportions 1: 1.

And you can spray the currants! This should be done in the evening or in cloudy weather, so that the sun's rays do not penetrate through the water droplets as through lenses, and do not burn the greenery of the bush.

For greater stickiness of the mixture, if we are still talking about getting rid of a large number of aphids, you can add a little laundry soap to the prepared solution.

In conclusion of the topic, I want to add that the fact that thanks to it, the yield of currants is amazingly increased for me!

And after the currants have been processed, after 7-10 days, I advise you to feed it with something complex mineral for a speedy recovery and "flourishing" of vitality, restoration of the injured green masses.
