At first they change their shape and dry the shoots, and behind them and the entire shrub.
    For the prevention of this disease, the plant after the winter is always hung with boiling water. It helps, although not in all cases.
  • The care of a young shrub is pretty simple. The land is loosened to a depth of 15 cm and eliminate weeds. Less frequently, the gooseberry is watered in the summer. For three hot months, the gooseberry must be poured three times - during the flowering period, when the ovary will appear before wintering.
  • Autumn eliminate all weeds, cut sick and dying branches. For wintering under the shrub, dry sawdust or dried peat layer with a thickness of up to 10 cm. After dipping and loosening the Earth, the gooseberry will be ready for wintering.
