I have a raised bed of potatoes that reached about a foot high before the frosts hit on Friday, I assumed that because they were rather far on that it wouldn't bother them but the top half of my plants seem to have lost all of their life, I'll try to get a photo later f I can!

Potatoes normally recover after being hit by frost, it may delay them a couple of weeks but should be ok.sigpic“Gorillas are very intelligent, but they don't have to be as delicate as chimps -- they can just smash open the termite nest,”

Do I prune the affected leaves back or just leave them to get on with it?Comment

The affected leaves are of no use to the plant so I would be tempted to remove them.sigpic“Gorillas are very intelligent, but they don't have to be as delicate as chimps -- they can just smash open the termite nest,”

Yes, remove the dead foliage before it rots on the plant. I think we all got frosted spuds this year: it was certainly the latest frost I've ever had hereAll gardeners know better than other gardeners." -- Chinese Proverb.Comment
