Topic: PFA harvest

[Tee Gee]

A two or three years ago a friend gave me half a dozen Pink Fir Apple tubers which I saved and planted out the following year.

Each year since my harvest has increased tremendously and this year I think was the best yet!

This is what I got from 25 tubers I saved from last year;



At a rough guess about half a hundredweight

Ohh..they do look good..now do you store yours as they are?..with soil...or do you 'wash' them?

Well done Tee Gee,......looking forward to next year  ;) ;D

They're so delicious. I never get such a good yield - but you deserve to, as you look after your potatoes so much better!

I haven't done PFA's for a few years, but when I did they were not as big as yours TG.       ;D ;D ;D

They're a lot later than nbormal modern maincrops, I made. that mistake last year and harvested too early.... it's easily done, they were the last things out..... that said, if you think they're bad try Congo.... I doubt I'll get mine up much before November......
