I took a red currant berry from my horticulture job last year. I guess I should start planting it now (indoors) so it could get a headstart. I've never grown these. Do you have any tips? I think our variety might be thornless. I don't remember ever prickling myself or being warned.

Dry the fruit, then plant it directly into the soil. I tried this with goji berry, and it always works for starting indoors. If it molds slightly in a few weeks, that is good, as the young root will have something to feed it. Do not replant until you have a sturdy, woody stem after winter dormancy.
Thank you. I will heed your counsel.
