Seed potatos
« on: January 17, 2004, 06:58:24 »
What's the difference between seed potatoes and the ones that you can buy to eat?

Just wondering as my tatties always start sprouting before I can eat them all, and it would be nice to be able to use them ....

Crumbs, do you ever sleep Richard?  Poor tatties won't get a chance at this rate!

If you're willing to accept the risk of disease, then although it's not 'good practice', your own, or s/market pots, do just as well.  = Tim
