My potatoes dissolve when cooked ! help
« on: September 15, 2011, 10:44 »
Please does anyone know what I am doing wrong?
This is the second year this has happened. I dug up my King Edward potatoes last week they were planted in April, they look fine, a bit small maybe. I cut them up put them in pan of water and within a minute they are turned to watery mush, very dissapointing.
I have clay soil which has had loads of horse manure dug in, I watered and did give them bone meal too. any advice would be welcome, thank you.

Welcome to the site  :D

The same question was asked about 2 hours ago; it's a common problem this year.

I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...
