Oh Peapod...

Daves picture is not at all boring  :shock:  

It shows all our new potato growers how to set them out in a tray with the rose end up and it also shows that the greenhouse is lagged to prevent them getting frosted.  

If new growers follow Dave's picture they are bound to be successful.  So thanks Dave  8)

That's number 28 in my new book "101 things to do with bubble wrap and Duck tape".

It'll soon overtake John's in the sales charts.

And here's mine last year (just put them in another thread too).



Bubble wrap on the greenhouse and fleece to cover them at night.

Quote from: "Iain@JBA"
Oh well I must be doomed I store 1000tonnes at 3 degrees


So could i plant my earlies without chitting them or would they just take longer to grow?
Try my best to be Organic but don't always make it
