Title: Cape Gooseberries
Post by: Georgie on May 30, 2005, 17:57:37
This is mainly for Amazin' who was asking how my CG's are fairing.  Too my mind they are a bit small for seed sown in March - about 6" - but they have been outside in the mini greenhouse for weeks and let's face it, we haven't had a lot of sunshine.  This is the first time I've grown them so any tips welcome.

They look a lot healthier than mine. When are you going to plant them out?

Hi Ani.  I'm thinking of keeping them in pots in the mini greenhouse as they are only supposed to reach a height of 2'.  However, Amazin' sent me some monster 6 footers which will have to go in pots on the patio pretty soon I reckon.

Sure Mac, but it might be a bit late?  PM me with your details and they'll be in the post.  :)
