Where do you live, Kittykat8? I don't have a polytunnel but I've had some early crops from the greenhouse. Bet it's the nicest tea for ages!Whoever plants a garden believes in the future.

Well done Kittykat. When did you plant them and which part of the country are you in. You'll sure enjoy them, and yes, you will feel the same next year.

Well done Marion,

Twenty degrees here today Kittykat, but not as mild during the winter and early spring as Cornwall. I was born and grew up in South Devon, near Plymouth, so frosts were never as much of a problem as they are here in east Anglia. You've done really well with your potatoes though, generally reckon 3 months from planting to harvest.Comment
