So today I want to plant some shrubs in our cool forest to bring in some more insects.
0:15 → 0:20
I got four shrubs on sale.
0:20 → 0:26
I'll start with the black currant, Ribes nigrum Titania.
0:26 → 0:33
It needs a sunny to somewhat cloudy spot, harvest time is June/July, and you have to water it well in the beginning.
0:34 → 0:36
Next I got red currant,
0:37 → 0:39
I got white currant
0:40 → 0:42
and I got gooseberries.
0:42 → 0:50
Generally they come as bushes, shrubs and as you can see fake trunk shrubs.
0:50 → 0:54
If you can, you should always get the shrubs, because they can grow nicely.
0:54 → 1:01
It is about a meter now, so if it grows to two meters, it will grow like this high, and then it will also bear fruit well.
1:01 → 1:03
I will plant my first shrub here.
1:03 → 1:06
I got my pick.
1:08 → 1:11
We need a hole, nice and deep.
1:18 → 1:21
Place it in here, great.
1:25 → 1:27
This is my first shrub.
1:32 → 1:36
Now we have to water it well, so pour water over it.
1:37 → 1:39
And then we're good to go.
1:39 → 1:46
Here I got gooseberries, white currant, red currant and black currant.
1:46 → 1:52
Harvest time is about six to eight weeks, so maybe we'll get something this year.
1:52 → 1:55
Let's wait and see if they set.
1:56 → 2:02
The goal is to get a few more shrubs in our little forest to get a bit of a mixed crop.
2:03 → 2:11
In terms of the soil, I can't say yet whether it will work here, because soil has its own peculiarities, but we'll see.
2:11 → 2:19
Either way, it was worth the 20€ to test it and let's see what happens, I'll keep you posted.
