Why is my cape gooseberry stunted and yellow
I planted this seeds from a fruit back in April, they since didn't show much growth. Besides each time I try to transfer any seedling it won't survive.
And now some leaves are turning yellow. Help!
soil is mostly peet moss, and I fertilized it twice using npk 20 20 20. I used to water it daily and it looked greener, but upon Greg's recommended schedule I'm now watering it twice a week. It gets 3 hours direct sunlight in the morning and I leave it outside under a flood light for 5 more hours.

@DaveAshraf Gooseberry bushes are hard to establish from seed so it’s great you got this far . They’re normally started from a cutting off another plant . But since you’ve come this far , I’d plant them in their forever home . It might or might not help but what do you have to loose . Again bravo on the seedlings not many get this far . We had them in our community garden and they flourished beautifully reaching a height of 3 to four feet and at least 5 feet wide .

Thanks a lot. It wasn't that hard, I'm fortunate to live where the weather is always warm and humid, which does all the heavy lifting. It makes almost any seed sprout, the only downside is propagation from cuttings is almost impossible except for 2 months a year.
