Whinham's Industry's a winner

Our two shamefully neglected gooseberry bushes produced 3lbs of fruit, despite being in the shade. Well impressed. Although Whinham's Industry is meant to be a dessert variety, I cooked them so not to notice the hairy skin, and had to add some honey to sweeten them. Some weren't as ripe as they could be, but it was a case of pick 'em or lose 'em to the birds and wasps. We've got tips on gooseberry growing on Gardening Masterclass.
