Cape Gooseberry golden nugget




This gooseberry plants are grown from seeds which i bought from Diana. Despite being very healthy and bearing so many fruit, so far i haven't taste it. There are so many whitish pests sucking the sap out of the stem and fruit. I usually kill it by pinching  since their body are soft, but lately the infestation is so severe. So yesterday i kill it with pesticide as a last resort.


seedling stage


2 weeks old
