Grow Your Own / Re: Potato Failure..

A fair amount of fruit & veg gets growth suppressant but I didn't expect spuds did given the state a lot are when I get round to eating them.  Get to the supermarket and buy some organic ones.

Thank you both.  It smells too good to risk so I'll start with a couple of foot and do the rest this winter.

That's a great point re storage Aidy, this year however, mrs R and myself arent storing any as we're not eating potatoes (keto lifestyle).
I'm just growing them for family to use as and when they're ready, I just don't understand why half grew and half didn't, could they have been treated with something to prevent them growing as normal?

Do check for bugs but apart from that I can’t see why you couldn’t use the stems in cooking.

Thanks. I have pulled up a dozen or so. Most are whoppers, about 3" diameter so I'll follow your routine with them

Mrs B - I am sure it is going to look lovely, but 39 is a lot to look after.  I have about 1/3 of that and wonder if I have overdone it  :lol:

Shaker style cabinet doors - been there, done that.  My kitchen cabinet doors drive me mad with the grime they collect and even more clever, I opted for a painted finish so you have to be really careful what you clean them with  ::)

The kitchen is old and due to be replaced soon, so I care less about the cleaning aspect and just scrub them nowadays. I just wish it didn’t have to be every 5 minutes  :lol:
