Title: Why are my Arran Pilot first earlies so hard and dense?
Post by: George the Pigman on July 20, 2013, 22:58:55

I have just dug up the first crop of my Arran Pilot spuds and unlike most first earlies I have grown before they seem very hard and dense when cooked and eaten. Is that the variety or is it the hot dry weather? Or something else?

A bit of both.... Pilot is pretty waxy and two weeks of sunshine will have made it more so
