While I was weeding at the end of a potatoe row yesterday a little Mimi potatoe literally popped out and rolled across the soil - it was about the size of one of those big marbles - Mimis are meant to be pretty small. While this could have been taken as an invitation to furtle - I resisted - I'm determined to leave them until the end of June, which will be 12 weeks exactly. A will of iron.

Am new to all this but we had a furtle on sunday not quite ready yet but took some up and made a potato salad.I can honestly say i havent tasted potatos like it since i was a little girl!!!!! ones you buy in shops have no taste at all compared to ones you  grow yourself, am completly converted and will plant many more next year!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some how or other I am not so sure my wife would view this the same way if I announced having furtled with the Duke of York despite his royal connections    :blink:

sounds like fun didnt realise we were allowed to fiddle with spuds!! I always get told off for seed peeking!

I furtled yesterday and not only did we have some delicious, good-sized spuds for tea but I've inspired the friend who was visiting to start growing her own veg!!!!

Am going to resist having a furtle until the weekend!

Very nervous about finding nothing!
