mattchu pichuHow do I know when currants are ripe
Tacocuted Should I wait for them to turn black/purple?
Nah, you have a red or pink variety here. They aren’t going to turn black or purple. It looks like you have a lot that are close or are ready for harvesting. Taste a few of the bigger, redder ones and you’ll get a sense what to look for. Try to trim off an entire cluster of ripe berries to save you some time and sanity too.
Thank you!! I will do this
Yeah! Congrats on the new home and the established red currants. Condolences regarding the potentilla indica.
Thanks. Are the pitentilla an invasive or troublesome plant?
Truthfully, what I remember of the plant is that it is hard to control and the fruit aren’t that great. That said, I’ve never actually grown the plant so I cannot be for sure. If you enjoy it that’s all that matters.
