My first dig of potatoes that are from outdoors already had the indoor ones but they didn't do very well. These are lovely so white and large too

Do you mean carp? As in fish - as in flooded??
Or do you mean dodo? As in 'what a blooming waste of all that hard work?'

3rd time in a row, but could only manage 30lbs this year (38lbs last year), what with the adverse weather and some b*****d stealing my best marrow and breaking off anything else that looked like it had potential.



Also won the 3 heaviest potatoes (up to 2lbs each despite both blight & blackleg), but we all had jacket potato for dinner last night.
