better use of space?

Have decided to try spuds this year have 5 red duke of york, 5 charlotte and 5 vivaldi.
Not got a lot of space...only four 4ftx12ft beds. Was wondering if i should put the later growing variety, the vivaldi i believe, into pots as i know i can get another crop in the bed after the earlies but too late after this one? Please someone give us a clue cos i aint really got one :blink: Just can't get me head round it today...dunno why
and no i wasn't on the vino last night.....how could you think such a thing

I've got some big buckets, but if I use them all, I just use the empty bags that had my seed compost in, like JulieP put some compost or manure in the bottom, plant a spud and cover it, then earth up as it grows like you do in the garden!  Also, you don't get as many nasties in the soil that way. 

I do it if I run out of room.  I've even grown them in the polytunnel before now.
