Potatoes Pink Fir Apple

Now, who was it who kindly sent me 5 of these to try - someone who was growing loads of them, I remember... ???

Just wanted to ask.......have yours chitted yet? Mine haven't.

Also want to ask anyone.....can I still plant them now-ish, ie either today or the weekend?

Many thanks, Lishka

Mine took ages to chit and still aren't as impressive as the other types I have.
Why would you not plant them now? weather permitting of course.

There's a thread on planting PFAs here

I'll be planting mine on easter monday (just to start a tradition really  ;D )

ps - the chits on my potatoes are small (if there at all) and purple with green end bits on them. Apparently this is normal, and I am quite lucky to have got any to chit at all  :) (that's a smug smiley btw)

Many thanks smug-smiley :) for the info and the link to the thread....I'll go along with the other 'traditionalist' and get them in on Good Friday (working off the Hot Cross Buns, like ;D)
