Martin B Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 Hia, we called in at the local nursery after casdbury worl, and I have got 4 large potatoes for planting. But what , how , when! I haven't got a clue what I need to do! If anyone has any experience with potatoes please tell me what I can do! Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken on a mission Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 Ther is quite a comprehensive thread already on potatoes. Here is the link for you: http://club.omlet.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3226 Good luck. We are doing ours this weekend and growing them in a wheelie bin so that we have plenty to room to layer up the compost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin B Posted April 15, 2006 Author Share Posted April 15, 2006 I think my Dad is going to help me plant them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clare* Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 I planted mine today 3 bright orange buckets and 2 compost bags. I decided against putting them in the ground, what with all the chicken digging gong on I thought they would no stand a chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard and Jo Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 We managed to plant ours at the allotment today - they have been sprouting in the bedroom for weeks. 3 rows of earlies and 3 normal - our 1st big planting session Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
