Have you watered in sunshine?  Could be sunscorch
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...

I have not watered them from the day they were sowed, could it be lack of water ? They are growing in pure manure 3' thick which is moist to the touch.

How many plants have it ?

If many it could be sun on the morning dew.

If only a few do you have an un neutered male cat around ?

To me it certainly looks like something wet has provided the sun with a magnifyer and caused scorch.

Nothing serious if that's what it is.

We have had a couple of days of rain now so I will go down today to see how the spuds are doing.

Thank you I thought it might be the blight I heard others talking about.

Sign yourself up to Blightwatch, it's got loads of information and an alert system for weather that might allow blight to flourish.
