How do they look??

they look just fine john

going a bit off topic but some folks rub the sprouts off just leaving 1 or 2 to give them bigger spuds,and leave em all on to get lots of little spuds :? anyone do this then ?

They look ace, John.

Rubbing them out, no, no. Waste of time, they just re-grow, only much later, ie wasn't much point in chitting them.

Great Melvyn says need to be cut out deep with the base, to have any real effect.

Well, my spuds haven't chitted half as well as that yet, but here's a picture of my homebrew that i'm supping whilst waiting.

That's a brew to be proud of, what is it?

It's a recipe taken from Graham Wheeler's book Brew your own real ale at home. The recipe is 'Robinwoods Old Fart'. It's about 6.2% and a very tasty winter ale. I'd definately make this one again.

Well, the name is not that tempting as the looks of it.

Any posts in Brew your own, maybe?
