I have never pruned my blackcurrant bushes either, but prune my
gooseberry and Worcesterberry (Jostaberry?) bushes to create a
'goblet' shape, keeping the centre of the bush open, as I believe
this helps to prevent mould spots on the berries.


I forgot to prune my redcurrants and they are covered in a huge crop
of weeney berries, hopefully I can add them to the 3 stone I already
have in the freezer.
