  • Apache Potatoes

    I've bought a few Apache Potatoes from T***O, well they looked so interesting I couldn't resist! - I am going to give them a try, as all my spuds in large pots. - Anyone tried this varierty? which I understand to be a Second Early or Early Maincrop.




    Might go well with the Cherokee Trail of Tears Beans ??

        I've eaten them - they're an Albert Bartlett spud and they're taster.

          Had some in wilcos today but I resisted due to having far too many seed spuds already!

                Not 100% sure on this but I was told that some of the formula's used actually penitrate the skin of the spud.

                      I may even be an inch taller than SWMBO but I don't want to get any shorter. I hate looking through armpits to see what's happening

                              Just like SWMBO and then turn round with a sweet smile and apologise profusely. I have seen guys hopping on one foot and apologising right back to the lovely little lady that has just speared their instep.

                              Sometimes have to turn away and have a little smirk.
