Gooseberrys and frost
« on: May 12, 2010, 20:05 »
Can baby Gooseberrys get frost damage? :(

I noticed tonight some of the fruit looked a bit off and could only think its frost damage.

I chucked a fleece over it tonight in case.

Anybody know anything?
I'm very important. I have many leather-bound books and my apartment smells of rich mahogany.

How are you going to get it off? (the fleece that is)
