Blackcurrant problem - Big Bud?
« on: April 28, 2009, 21:14 »
Hi

I have a number of blackcurrant bushes which I think have got Big Bud? 

I can't seem to find any mention of this on the www except as a form of cannabis plant with the same name (£8.75 for one seed - wow!).

Does anyone have an organic cure and does it affect the bush for the future?

Thanks for any help.
DD ;)

I found it on the RHS website...
http://www.rhs.org.uk/advice/profiles0107/bigbud.asp

and on the basis that the bushes were heavily infested (and it's common on our site so reinfection would be likely) we dug em up and burned them...

Thanks for quick reply - hope the rain stops soon so I can get out and pick the buds off tomorrow.

It's going to be a big job - might end up digging them out too!!
