Spuds are tubers which are produced as a food source to feed the shoots and roots until they in turn can start producing food themselves.

Clearly when chitting some of these reserves are used up so the seed starts to soften and shrivel. No problem!
Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

One of the best things about being an orang-utan is the fact that you don't lose your good looks as you get older
