potatoes and 4 tier greenhouse

Potatoes are now available in B&Q.  2 sacks for £5 (each sack is 2.5 kg - containing about 22 potatoes)

Also a 4 tier mini greenhouse with plastic cover is at Focus for £13.99  (if I remember right)

I went today - most of the bags are 2.5kg but the salad potatoes have 1.5kg in them.
I bought some second earlies - Maris Piper which had a grand total of 59 in it. Also some desiree - 43 in that pack.

Obviously as they are sold by weight that means some of mine were quite small - is that likely to affect anything?

Woolies have also got a Spear and Jackson 4 tier mini greenhouse at £14.99 - or the shelving on its own for £9.99.

I mentioned this in another thread, but worth repeating here I think  - Wilkinsons have spare covers for mini-greenhouses (both three and four tier) fo £3.99
Lesson for life:
