I did see some sort of sack about knee height for around £4 but what do I do with that do I fill it up to the top and plant the Tubers or do I half fill it or something else??? and what do I fill it with ???
So I should Chit them first which I am taking as meaning put them on the window sill until roots sprout?? do I have to do anything else or is it just place them on the window sill??
is the video any good http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3zoVolI-Swnot sure about the watering side seems odd to me no water for a week ? and I dont think he chitted them did he??
so lets see if I got this if I quater fill bag lay potatoes in then cover again so the bag is about half full and then keep topping up ??
Sorry if I am being basic first bit of growing I have done Grin but who knows in a few months I might be giving the advice Smiley
you should have taken them out the wrapping soon as you got them!! Plastic is not a good wrapping for organic items, as it doesn't breathe, and if you leave any potatoes in an unopened plastic bag they will rot!!You can plant your seeds if you can keep the frost off them. Ergo, you cant plant outside at the moment cos its still pretty chilly at nights. If you can get them under cover your ok.
nilly71 I am off to pound land tomorrow get some of those bags ;) I noticed you have them on some plastic is this a good idea for me to do does it have a purpose ??
would I have time this year
Should I get new ones tomorrow then or will these be ok they are starting to get roots out of them and they are spongy ???
Tee Gee what do you mean he did more at this stage than I would do in practice as it was a demo ?
My seed potatoes seem very soft and wrinlky is that ok and should I take them out of the packaging now ?
How do I know when I can plant them can I do it now or is it still to cold ?
would I have time this year ??
