Mid-May - time when infectious diseases of the gooseberry and currant are activated, as well as pests that eat leaves and buds and give you a great harvest. What attacks are waiting for the owners of berry shrubs and how to cope with them?

The fight against the pests of currant and gooseberry always remains relevant. The most dangerous of them are kidney moles and leaflers, gooseberry mills or sawers, as well as gallians, waves, pads. The main damage they are applied in the period when the leaves bloom. Berry bushes are sprayed with one of the following drugs: 10% (75 g per 10 liters of water) or 30% carbofosomes (20 g per 10 liters of water), 10% trichlorometaffos (100 g per 10 liters of water).

With a large number of paouth ticks, 20% Celtan (20 g per 10 liters of water) is added.

Instead of kernels, currant and gooseberry bushes, which are amazed by a pillow, spray:

  • emulsion prepared from 100 g kerosene and 50 g of liquid soap on 10 liters of water. All stirred;
  • it is possible to use an agricultural soap-soap (1 kg of wood ash boil, cool, merge with sludge, add 50 g of soap);
  • daily infusion of garlic (200 g per 10 liters of water);
  • nasty from the grass was chiile (1 kg of dry grass and roots insist in 10 liters of water. Two days and add 50 g of the household soap).

To combat pests and diseases of the currant and gooseberry, gardeners use infusions and decoctions of various herbs. Plants must be collected only in dry, clear weather and dry in the shade immediately after collecting. Rhizome, roots and bulbs before this is well cleaned from the soil and washed in cold running water. Stored dried plants in a dry, ventilated room in bags of fabric or paper with a label. They are used for pollinating, decoctions and info.

For pollinating, dry plants are tricious in fine powder. To prepare infusion or decoction, the vegetable mass is crushed. When boiling, the decoction, as evaporation, fasten the water to the original level. Spray plants are better late in the evening when the bulk of useful insects is in shelter.

Kindle tick on currant

In May, during the period of the bootonization, the currant bushes need to crumble enlarged kidneys, where kidney ticks were certainly settled. During the migration of this pest on the way from old kidneys in young plantations at air temperature above 20 plants spray with a suspension of colloidal sulfur (100 g per 10 liters of water).

For 1 hour, the treated currant or gooseberry bush is needed to cover with a polyethylene film. After 7-10 days, the processing should be repeated. Note that the solution does not hit the gooseberry leaves, as they can dry and fall off.

Before blossoming to scare away the fire, gallicles, sawers and other pests for bushes both currants and gooseberries, put banks with branches of elderberry, colars, carbollas and other smelling substances. Soil under the bushes can be pollined with a mixture of tobacco with wood ash (1: 1), spending one glass of mixture on the bush.

Even before flowering, all berry cultures carefully examine to detect the laying of the eggs of the sawder. Eggs have an oval shape and almost always white. Females lay eggs on the opposite side of the sheet along the veins, located at the bottom of the bush.

The appears of false guns begin to squander small round holes. In the following days, they fully overeat the leaves of such shrubs as a gooseberry, all kinds of currant (red, white and black) leaving some sakes (brooms).

The development time of false guns lasts within 20 to 28 days. Having found the leaves on its garden plot with holes, immediately collect them and destroy them, and spray the bushes with an etobacterin (100 g per 10 liters of water).

Entobakterin is considered to be a particularly effective means in the fight against the pests of the currant or gooseberry. It is better to spray the bushes at the end of a sunny day, while there is no direct sun (the effect of ultraviolet on the spores of the drug bacteria that reduces the efficiency of processing). The most effective entobacterin at 18-20 ° C.

Gruce - Currant Disease

When black currant begins to bloom, all bushes need to be examined to defeat such a disease as a terrain. The main signs of its manifestation are deformations not only of leaves and flowers, but also shoots. And it is especially well noticeable on the flowers. Strong-pool flowers are converted to other (separated), their feeding is reduced.

Both a cup, and a whisk, and the stamens of the currant flower turn into narrow, finely small scales of purple. All marking looks like a swollen. Such flowers quickly dry and subsequently fall.

Another feature is a busty kidney affected by theft disease, it will begin to bloom a little later than in healthy, so the period of mass flowering is stretched accordingly.

Crimsiness of currant (reversion) is an infectious disease. It is transmitted together with the planting material and by means of a hurry tick. Through the soil, the disease is not transmitted. However, all sick bushes carefully come up and without a residue, completely burned.

Cuttings should only be taken from well-known healthy bushes. To do this, during the flowering period, the currant needs to be well inspecting the bush - if there are flowers affected by disease or a bush need to be burned. It makes no sense to cut separate branches affected by terrain.

Diseases of the gooseberry and currant very quickly and actively apply, as well as pests. You can only stop the timely detection and treatment.
