Thanks for the helpful video! I just bought some seeds and am looking forward to growing them for the first time. After seeing your video, I'm changing my plan to grow them in large pots. I think they wouldn't live their best life that way! I will switch them to a 3X 6 raised bed.

You're going to love them...like candy...just give them as much organic material as you can...

Hello from New Zealand. I'm growing these for the first time. I grew them from seed and they're fruiting and just started falling off in the last two weeks. They taste like a sweet creamy tomato to me. Kind of a weird taste but nice. The kids love finding them and opening the shells. Im on a hill close to the coast and its really windy here and can be a challenging environment for some plants but the ground cherry seems to be coping. Weve got about 4 months till the next frost so i think i will get to enjoy then for quite a few months. All the best.
