DETAILS

Onderhoudsinstructies
Red currants require moderate temperatures and should be planted in an area that receives direct bright light for at least six hours a day. They prefer evenly moist soil and moderate humidity. Regular watering is essential, especially during dry periods. The plant can tolerate a range of temperatures but thrives best in temperate climates.
Oogst
Ribes rubrum, commonly known as red currant, typically reaches harvest maturity in mid to late summer. The berries should be harvested when they are fully ripe, which is indicated by a deep red color and a slightly soft texture. To harvest, gently pick the clusters of berries by hand, taking care not to damage the plant or the fruit. It is best to harvest in the morning when the berries are cool and dry. Ensure that the berries are handled gently to avoid bruising, and store them in a cool place shortly after picking to maintain their freshness.
Bodem
Red currants prefer well-draining loamy soil that is rich in organic matter. The soil should be kept evenly moist but not waterlogged. A slightly acidic to neutral pH is ideal for optimal growth.
Kunstmest
A balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10 should be applied in early spring and again in mid-summer. This will provide the necessary nutrients for healthy growth and fruit production.
Verpotten
Red currants can be repotted if necessary, typically in early spring before new growth begins. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one and ensure it has good drainage. Gently remove the plant from its current pot, loosen the roots, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil.
Voortplanting
Red currants can be propagated through hardwood cuttings taken in late autumn or winter. Cut a healthy stem about 20-30 cm long, remove the lower leaves, and plant it in a pot with well-draining soil. Keep the soil moist and place the pot in a sheltered location until new growth appears.
Snoeien
Pruning is essential for red currants to maintain their shape and encourage fruit production. Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth starts. Remove any dead or diseased wood, and thin out crowded branches to improve air circulation.
Toxiciteit
Red currants are not toxic to pets or humans. The berries are edible and often used in jams, jellies, and desserts. However, the leaves and stems should not be consumed.
Aanvullend
Red currants are relatively easy to care for but do require regular maintenance to ensure healthy growth and fruit production. Mulching around the base of the plant can help retain moisture and suppress weeds. Additionally, protecting the plant from strong winds and extreme temperatures will promote better growth.
