Hi all, ive just planted my first, seconds and main crop spuds and am a bit worried about underground slug damage, so i was wondering when the best time was to buy and water in some nematodes to kill off the slimy little critters?

Im thinking that they will only start hatching two weeks after the ground gets warm enough and obviously at the moment there are only the seed potatoes there for them to munch on.

Thanks in advance.

as long as soil temperature is over 5C you can use them.

Did mine on Sunday...another pack arriving for six weeks' time. 

Never tried them before, so hoping for a good result....
