My seed potatoes have just arrived and I planned to put them in the garage. However, I'm not sure that it's cold enough, compared to where they've been stored before and I haven't got a shed yet. I'm sure that I remember something on another thread about keeping them in the fridge, so this is where they are for now...


Can I keep them here until I need to chit or plant, or is there somewhere more suitable (be polite  :lol: )?
My music teacher was right. If you have to make a mistake, make it good and big and loud; with a bit of luck people will think that it was always meant to be like that.

Thanks, I'll leave them where they are then.

Maybe I should have cleaned the blue tray, though. It's come from the lotty and looks a bit grim close up  :oops: !

I was thinking how tidy your fridge looked actually, didn't even notice the dirt... :wink:

That looks like a lovely jar of marmalade too...  :tongue2:

I'm very excited about my marmalade; sad but true. It's the first year that I've made marmalade (used Seville) and I used a recipe from an old version of Good Housekeeping that my mum had as a wedding present 40 years ago.

Blimey, it's good if I do say so myself  :D !

Nothing sad about it!!! I made some Damson Jam last year ( it's my dads favourite) I was quite pleased with it,but it was a little too tart for me though...

My neighbour is big on making Jams and Marmalades etc, I buy the odd one or two off her...nothing like homemade..

I'm salivating now :roll:  :lol:

Right, you've got me started now, I'm off to cut myself a lovely chunky slice of bread (out of the maker this morning, mmm), dripping in butter and smeared with loads of chunky marmalde  :D .

Beginning to sound a little bit too much like 'preserves porn'  :wink: ?!

Any chance of a copy of the recipe please?  I saw the seville oranges in the local greengrocers the other day and my old dad just loves his homemade marmalade.  I haven't made any for a couple of years now so don't think I have a good recipe.

Many thanks

I'm not posting photos of my fridge, environmental health will be around!
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?
