On my plot I inherited 3 blackcurrant bushes.
Two give me fruit the size of a small marble, one gives fruit less than a quarter of that size.
I only like blackcurrants in jam so couldn't say if one tastes better....they all taste pretty grim straight from the bush
I took cuttings last year from the big fruit bushes, used them as pea sticks for overwintering peas, they have all taken root.
My question then;
Do the fruit get bigger over the years or should I oik out the bush with small currants in favour of one of my new plants from the big fruit bush?
