Re: Failure!!
How long did you leave them, Carol? Its not a bad lot, but if that's the size of the plant, it might have done another couple of weeks. I think you are supposed to wait until they flower, and then if you see potatoes close to the surface of the dirt, they are pretty much ready to be picked. I picked mine tonight and didn't get many either, to be honest. Its not a great year for producing veggies.Re: Failure!!
Ahhh ok...well I have no idea then....maybe it was the type of potato's you planted...What expectations did you have? With mine, I had large bushy plants and even potato berries (which cannot be eaten) so I thought I would have millions, but no such luck. About 12 were decent, the rest were tiny wee things like marbles.Re: Failure!!
Re: Failure!!
The thing is about not using seed potatoes Carol is, how do you know if they were supposed to be Early's, mid season, or Main crop?Re: Failure!!

Re: Failure!!
I thought I looked after them well. I fed them with potato feed I got from Amazon & kept them watered. I grew them in 75 LT tubtrugs with holes drilled in the bottom.
