Allotments 4 All

I know that Phil (the potato guru) will forgive me for this,  & I'm not saying that I disagree, but these were the aforementioned varieties in the Cotswolds. Half eaten!

The Franceline are the red ones.

Elkebee, I have 3 international kidney (aka jersey royals) seed spuds you can have if you can collect from oxford  :D

Tim,

As ever, you have shown what can be done!! When did you harvest last of the crop?

My concern is that frost will curtail (or stop even!) the growth before there is a decent sized crop.

Phil

They were sound (surprisingly) way into the frosts. Coming up frozen!

I went up to the lottie last night to plant leeks (no room left in the frame!) and peeked under the fleece at the poor frosted spuds. And they're regenerating very fast! Lots of new little shoots already, so I'm much cheered up by this.  The chair of the allotment committee suggested they'd be put back a couple of weeks, so I figure it's one way of getting successional crops  ;D

Now all we have to do is hope for more rain - too dry and cold for anything to germinate well at the moment
