Watermelon 12 Nov, Another gardener (South Africa - Summer rainfall climate): Hi I'M from Australia. I comment on Aust and NZ Gardenate questions. This website tells you when to plant and provides information about growing the crop. If there is not enough info here go onto GOOGLE and search. Check the calendar about when to plant - it is that simple. Or find a plant on the Vegetables and herbs tab. (Find your zone on the Climate zone tab, then make sure that is showing at the top of the plant page to get the correct information for your area)

Cape Gooseberry (also Golden Berry, Inca Berry ) 11 Oct, Victor Jee (South Africa - Semi-arid climate): Dear Sir I would like to know at what temperature will the gooseberry seed be destroyed 100c 150c or higher? Regards Victor Jee

Cape Gooseberry (also Golden Berry, Inca Berry ) 13 Nov, anon (South Africa - Summer rainfall climate): Killing seeds first depends on what plant, some require higher temps. Generally the lower the temp the longer to kill it. The higher the temp the less time required. Above about 180 F will kill most seeds. Temps of 180-200 F will kill most seeds in 30 mins.
