Did anyone have success with Oka this year - how did they taste, would you recommend them?
Iam dreaming and planning next years produce and these look fun but it would be great to know how they did
Thanks

Harvest time is not till November or later. Be patient and all will be revealed.

The tubers all grew without trouble and I am hoping for a result but there is no way of knowing what sort of yield to expect until they are dug up. The tubers should just be starting to form now so in theory a long and decent autumn should be to their liking.

Might explain why I couldn't find anything when I was rooting around at the weekend for EcoFest...
