Goji Berry Tip's

I had a pack of Goji berry seeds about two years ago and never used them as the instructions seemed too complicated.I got another pack seeds this year and planted them but it says between 75 and 80 weeks between sowing and harvesting or I think that is what it said but have thrown the packet away.I now have 8 small plants in 3" pots which I believe should not be planted out now until the spring.So not sure what to keep them in and not sure how big they will grow to.Can anyone advice please.

 

I think it is Bush, so will not be bigger than 1mx1m within 5 years, in UK

The leaf of goji berry in spring is also delicious

 

Thanks Tracy but still not sure as to when they have to be planted out by my reckoning it should be about April.So eight plants will take up quite a bit of space if they are 1mtx1mt

 

I'd pot them on this summer up to about 6in pots and plan on planting out next spring.
I'd be inclined to forget about the so called harvesting time as that will rely an awful lot on growing conditions etc.

 

You need keep it pot, slug can easily eat them. When they are big enough, then pick strong one, I grow them,separated about 40 cm is ok. They are tough plants

 

Try the young leaves in spring, nice

 

If I put the six best plants in 6" pots and put them outside during the day and in the greenhouse at night until the spring would that be ok

 

Forgot to ask would these be better in a raised bed or directly in the ground.

 

Paul, where are you?
Its not only spring but very nearly summer where I'm at.

 

They are Hardy, if don't have slug problem, then directly in ground is ok. They don't like shade

 

I am in Burgess Hill West Sussex

 

I just wondered if I could now transplant these plants as I have a raised bed which is now empty.They are currently in about 4" pots and are starting to get a bit rangy.On the packet it said plant out in spring but sure whether or not they will last in pot's as these were the only pot's I had left.Would love to have some opinions.
