just got to wait for the other 16 to come up now lol.

**annetteevans** · 11-07-2008, 10:24 PM

woo hoo you!
i planted some supermarket spuds too and they have grown, i keep having to earth them up

**lynda66** · 11-07-2008, 10:33 PM

oh we haven't got to that stage yet, they've made their own little mound though and the leaves are about 2" out .. its weird how quick it's come up, all my other veg have been about an inch tall for the last month.

**thornton19uk** · 12-07-2008, 12:37 PM

Well done, I hope the other 16 come up soon.

**lynda66** · 12-07-2008, 08:17 PM

i now have 4

they definitely weren't there yesterday either, don't they grow quick once they've got going? lets hope the rooty bits are doing their job too

**TinyT** · 12-07-2008, 08:49 PM

Congrats! Yes they do grow quite a bit once they get going. Hope you get quite a few more with all the recent downpours.

**Demeter** · 12-07-2008, 10:48 PM

They take ages to come up, but once they've appeared they grow like mad! As in, you'll be earthing them up and then before you can turn round they'll be 6 inches above ground again!! Fantastic - well done you

Well how many have you got there today - are you sure your pets aren't unearthing them to make you feel good??

**lynda66** · 13-07-2008, 10:03 AM

still just 4 so far, but the suns out so maybe they'll get a wriggle on today ...... and deffo not the pets, they are under nets, as i have some peas behind them.

**lynda66** · 13-07-2008, 02:11 PM

oooooooo i just checked the ones in the front lawn, wasn't expecting them as they were planted a week or so behind the ones in the back, but i've got 3 there too

going to put the cauli and broccoli out now ..... *waits for neighbour to say "what on earth are you doing now"*

**rayj** · 13-07-2008, 10:32 PM

You shouldn't have the pets under nets - you will have the RSPCA knocking at your door.

**lynda66** · 14-07-2008, 11:33 AM

if they get under the nets, they'll be dead pets
