Re: Potato Crop

Anyone else noticed that their potato harvest is rubbish this year?

Well I wouldn't quite say rubbish, but on the disappointing side.
But maybe you had different conditions to us, we're just outside
Bournemouth, whereabouts are you?

I'm in Bolton. Like everyone, we had hot and dry weather in July, with
August cool and damp and not much sun. My spuds are grown in the ground on
the allotment, and in plastic potato bags - International Kidney, Pink Fir
Apple, and Sante; all have been disappointing. Like you, I'm leaving the
pink fir apple in the hope of a better late crop.
