Getting the Spuds in

I am not far away. I like to risk just a few earlies as soon as the soil is workable in March. These will need looking after, earthing up to start with and fleece when the tops get bigger, to protect them from frost. Some planted 5th March last year gave the first digging in the first week in June. I do have very light soil.

All the rest go in late March / early April when the soil has warmed up.
