Basically I have done my planning for crop rotation for next years sowings and my potatoes are going from one end of the plot to the opposite end and I've been on the lottie this morning doing some digging to prepare it and lay my fresh manure to allow the worms to do their work  :)

However, standing back and looking at it, the space isn't as much as I had last year. Not a problem you would think, just widen it a bit.

Problem is my sprouts are still in place and technically in the way :-(

So, can I carry on with what I can and when the sprouts are out, simply dig it and suffer the fact that section's not manured?

Just carry on and dig some well rotted manure in when planting..simples.

Not always a good idea for spuds after brassicas if you limed the brussles? You may get some scab from the lime.
