How to Save Seeds

Saving cape gooseberry seeds is a simple and straightforward process that anyone can do. First, start by selecting ripe, healthy fruit that has already fallen from the plant. This will ensure that the seeds are mature and ready for germination. Next, remove the outer husk of the fruit to extract the seeds. This can be done by gently squeezing the fruit or using a sharp knife to cut through the husk. Once the husk is removed, you will find the small, yellowish seeds inside. After removing the seeds, rinse them thoroughly in cool water to remove any remaining fruit debris. Spread the seeds out on a paper towel or cloth to dry. Once the seeds are completely dry, store them in a cool, dry place in a sealed container.
