just being a nosey barstewerd ;D ;D
We've been digging some lovely spuds despite the lack of rain :(
One or two plants just give up and collapse 'not sure what that is but there's good potatoes underneath :)
ours have been great, Jim..how about yours?
hi manics i was late putting them in end of april so not ready vet
sharpes express and charlotte hope the july blioht dont get em
one of our firsts were sharpe's express,put in march, dug up 5 plants yesterday, nice size :)
We dug up three Home Guard plants yesterday which gave us about four meals. A d**n sight more than what we got from the buckets and containers we had in the polytunnel.
A total disaster! Dug up two plants of earlies today which gave us one very meagre serving. And that's a month later than normal.
A combination of late frosts and no appreciable rain for months. I can't recall a worse year ever.
Like you Jim, Charlotte, but I went for a bag of Exquisa from Tesco. Theyare doing quick good for a trial spud. Dug a few at the weekend and not bad at all.
I may give these bags a go again in a few years time.
Still waiting but not looking too hopeful- much less growth than usual.
