You have a wonderfully informative channel. I found you by searching for rhubarb (my favorite for pies and jams) and now gooseberries! I loved gooseberry jam when I was a kid.
Hi. Your video is very informative. Perhaps the best video on the Planet. I have a question though. I am second season for gooseberrie bushes and I was wondering if and when I should start to see leaves. Right now the buds seem to have stopped growing. I can't tell if the bush is alive or dead. They are potted on my balcony. Are you able to give me some feed back. If so I would appreciate that so much.
Ron! I don't know too if I should prune them it is early spring here in Canada!
Thank you for the video, I Tried Gooseberries when I worked for a couple days loading trains up with food/product. While in the back of the truck I seen these and ate a couple, I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT, When I seen the seeds at the store I bought them right away. They take quite a long time to Sprout. But my lil seedlings are going to be planted into another pot in ten minutes. Once again, thanks, appreciate it.
What was the 'food' he put in? I've got a couple of gooseberry bushes well-established in an allotment bed. I got a fantastic crop last summer. I'm in the UK so it's spring now. I'm not sure whether to put bonemeal on or a general fertiliser like chicken or poultry manure.
watch the watering too, they split if get too much, i found out last yr ..hehe gooseberries FTW.
am just about to plant some, about 6, any thing I could do, for better results...plant in a row ? clumped together ?? was thinking behind some netting for bird control and besides a 'netting' type half 'fence' for a bit of shade (dint know that thx) ...
@dicklarf I bet you can row anything anywhere if o needed to man, am UK and they grow here, stand the cold v well if that was your concern? that aid, if if gets cold like past -4 I'd be coveringem up with some cloth or starw or some such -just keep it offlike..., have start the vid again now lol.
be easier m8 if you put the bucket in the barrow an used ur hands. lurve the goosegogs miself , real nice in ice ream;)
good vid man, ooh, this is old ..off to watch some newer ones of yours, ,
I love watching your videos cuz your mannerisms really crack me up! lol and love the way u keep scraping around for free stuff...makes me laugh.. you're more frugal than me and Im pretty frugal, haha..never tasted a gooseberry before...what do u make w/them?
Why not put things into ground? You mentioned not having much space but if your going to put it in ground later why not now instead of risking it in a pot? I see lots of grass behind, are the sheep eating that? I'd make them eat around my gooseberrie.
Sounds YUM! Especially in our Australian summer conditions, to protect from the harsh afternoon sun is really important. Thanks for another great video!
Nice one man, we just got 2 thornless blackberries, about 12 strawberries and a rhubarb, along with two citrus trees and a countless number of seed packets...its gonna be a busy spring! :)

I bet I cant grow these because I live in Canada.

I think it depends on where in Canada you live. Gooseberries are supposed to be hardy in zones 3-8. Probably some varieties are hardier than others.
