Potatoes awful, tomatoes great, corn so so and brassicas not good. I think this was due tow cool damp summer in the north west.
What I'm trying to say is that I hope you don't give up ... you're quite clearly an exceptional gardener ... and your presence online is invaluable for people starting off. I see so many people in my life who are poorer for not growing their own food - I think you'd really be missing out if you really did give up TeeGee!
Again I would put the case for planting and harvesting potatoes early - it's been a godsend to my potato crop for two years now ... it's all too easy to blame all kinds of external factors (I think that's just human nature -- but we should try to fight it!)I'm really sorry the badgers got your potatoes - I thought they were a pretty vermin-free crop.
Dug up a bed of 8 harmony plants this afternoon, admittedly on poorish soil no manure and only got a tray full of tubers but most of bakers size. Just ate some for tea, not much flavour having them baked so not likely to have impressed me enough to grow again. Kestrel and International kidney to follow.....
