 A gooseberry propogation tip
I always used to take cuttings from the prunings when sorting out my gooseberries in the autumn. They were put several to a pot and then potted on individually in the spring when they started to shoot.
Now however I have way that gives you instant 1 year old bushes. In the spring, peg down into the soil a couple of low lying branches. They will fruit as normal but come the autumn if you remove the peg you will find that the branch has rooted and just needs lifting gently, cutting off, and potting on in John Innes no3 for your well established extra plant. |
