I didn’t know how to prune my redcurrant bush, so I just left them for a couple of years. Last year I gave away over 9kg of redcurrants after I had a full drawer in the freezer and no more room.
Last winter I chopped around as I saw fit, to try and limit the yield… I only gave away 6kg, and left the rest for the wood pigeons :rofl:
