    Spotty potato leaves!

    One of my potato plants in buckets has acne Its Rocket, has been out in the weather for several weeks and is the only affected bucket. So, just in case its something nasty, I've culled it The spuds were small but perfectly formed and I'll tell you what they taste like this evening!
    I've no idea what caused the spots but here are some photos in case you have something similar:

    I'm guessing at magnesium deficiency VC,if it appears on any more plants try spraying the foliage with Epsom Salts at a ratio of an ounce to a litre

      Thanks BB. I guessed it was some sort of deficiency but couldn't make up my mind what I'll get some Epsom Salts in, just in case it recurs.

              Put the pot of granules & any excess mixed product in a fridge,it keeps very well
