I planted a gooseberry at the lottie this spring and it now has a shoot coming up from underground about 2" away from the main stem. Do I let this grow or can I cut it off below ground level and replant it? It doesn't fit the bush 'style' as the main plant has one stem as a kind of small standard so am not sure quite what to do. Never grown goosgogs before.

Have a gentle fertle to see if it has any roots yet.
TBH- I'd leave it be and check it again in the Autumn- and if it has roots then chop it off and replant it.
I seem to get at least 10 free baby , ready rooted plants every Autumn- perfect for gifts!!!!!

I am having something similar with my blueberry bush. I was just going to leave them where they were, would it be better to move them and replant them?Comment

I have just given it a real pruning before it comes into leaf in the hope of getting some regeneration and the tree not having to work as hard getting water and nutrients higher up. If this doesn't work I'll replace it next year with something else.
