Title: Harvesting Potatoes
Post by: Easywriter on June 26, 2010, 07:00:23
Hi

I put some "Annabelle" earlies in, mid-May. They seem to be doing fine, and have just started to flower. Info I can get seems to be saying harvest 16-17 weeks after planting, which would make it end-August in my case. But something else I've seen says 'harvest after flowering' - but this would be far too soon, surely? ???

Annabelle are a second early harvesting 16/17 weeks after planting i usualy wait a couple weeks after the flowers have died off before i start lifting.
