seed potatoes in shed

Mine (what are left) are now living on the draining board in a box - Next year I'm not buying any until mid to late February so I don't have the storage problem again

The only reason I can think of for wanting to delay the start of chitting is shortage of space to actually chit them (or a serious lack of brownie points in your bank account with respect to negotiations with your OH!)

I have a different problem. I am out of the country from March-June but still want my spuds when I get back.

I was intending planting them immediately before i go and was trying to 'hold them back' a bit so that they didn’t poke their heads up into a late frost when I wasn’t there to care.

Is this a plan or should i start getting used to the idea of a year without ladyC and pink fir 

I got some of my seed potatoes this morning. 

2.5K each of Desiree and Pentland Javelin. Just waiting on some Kestrel now from the hut on our site.

I'm chitting them in the kitchen in modules, some on a shelf beside the door and some near window.

 



They should be ok there, shouldn't they?  :blink:

I never knew I could get so much joy at looking at potatoes every day to see how they are doing  I guess I'm sad
