seed potatoes, where do you get them from? would love to grow some in pots, i have some asda flower pots, (freebies)  ;D

I have a few pink fir that my friend gave me.  They are very well chitted as she tried to grow them in bags but it didn't work for her.  I think she misunderstood my instructions.

Welcome Lottie Lou :D

Well at least you have them, you may need to give your friend a practical demo ;)
I was born with nothing and have most of it left.

Either sort of compost will do - depends on what you have available.

Seed potatoes - Any of the major suppliers will have them Dobies, Marshals, Suttons, Unwins, but I got mine from Edwin Tuckers http://www.tuckers-seeds.co.uk/index.php

Thanks
