I live in Daytona FL. I grew cape gooseberries over the winter and had a seasonal crop. Red spider mites took over them come spring so I cut them way back. Now they are growing back. Should I keep them for another season or uproot them and start over?

Either way will work. Spraying them with Neem Oil (not in the heat of the day) should help with the Spider Mites. Also spraying the plants with a blast of water, concentrating on the underside of the leaves will also help.
