    Anyone seen where you can buy salt tolerant seed potatoes?

    I don't have salty soil, but I thought this was a very interesting article....

    I wonder how the flavour / texture is affected?

    Very interesting, Nicos. Thanks. I like that sort of thinking outside the box. Hope its successful.
    Its also inspiring me to sow the Sea Aster seeds I bought a little while ago

      IIRC International kidney aka jersey royal are mulched with seaweed. I assume that has some salt left on.

        I thought the EU had stopped them using seaweed and that's why the taste has gone down hill in recent years.

          Possibly - it was something I'd read ages ago.

            Pretty sure they still use it.

            Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

            Which one are you and is it how you want to be?
