The secret is to take a gamble and plant them earlier then be prepared to give them as much protection as you can. My first planting in the greenhouse this year was 22 Feb and I lifted the first lot last Sunday.

I plant up 4 or 5 tubs each week over a month so that if I lose some to hard frost I still have some in reserve. For three out of the last four years I've had new potatoes by the end of April.
