Title: Good Bakers
Post by: mysterio_3d on October 20, 2007, 18:56:37
Had my new allotment for about a month now but looking forward to this time next year when I will (hopefully) be enjoying the fruits of my labours. 
I had to buy some baking potatoes today and want to grow loads for this time next year.  What type of potato should I be looking for to grow which make the best Jacket Potatoes?

I find Marfona are a very good dual purpose spud and make fabulous, very good sized baking potatoes.
