First New Potatoes :-)

One of my potato plants in buckets looked a bit sorry for itself today so I decided to tip it out and got some beautiful Pentland Javelin spuds

I've just finished making a potato bake with them it tastes excellent.

First times I've ever eaten my own spuds, most very happy indeed.

Cheers
Jim

Congratulations!

What sort of yield did you get and how many seed spuds per bucket?

Mine did know good, as you see in the new thread I hat started.

Congratulations..I am testing my own patience. I was late planting and they took ages to get growing. But the tops are grand now.....just 1 more week
