........notice how I didn't mention the 'potato' word.....

 :shock:  oops I just did!

Did I mention my small garden and containers?.....oh did I?  :roll:
 
Any road up, I'm   planning how many  containers I will need  for the different varieties of spuds I have bought...... I'm up to 304 at the mo' ....  :D

 (please don't ask how many spuds I've got altogether )

Soooo......could I plant different varieties together, if I needed too?  :?

Personally I wouldn't - when you dig up the earlier variety, you might just disturb the later ones.
Failure is only a temporary change in direction to set you straight for your next success.
Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.

:shock:  :shock:  :shock:  :shock:  I had about that many last year and they took up all my half plot of 40' x 26'.

Oh - and I overlapped onto Mrs Digger's plot as well!
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

I don't think there's any reason you couldn't plant different varieties of spud which mature at the same time together - except you might not know which is which when you come to eat them!
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...
