How to fertilize Canadian Gooseberry

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Canadian Gooseberry after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Hi!! Hey guys! , this is Magnolia, for a month since I changed her pot, she has been losing leaves that when they fall they look completely black, some leaves have black spots, she is outside in my patio, she gets no more than three or four hours of sun a day but indirectly, because she’s under a tent. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas what she's up to? Thank you! #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict

Rex isn't happy and I don't know why #BlackCurrant
