You mean you never harvested them last year and they've regrown?

**burnie** · 23-07-2017, 09:47 AM

Never done that either.

I have

. I've got a barrel of Epicure that I never harvested and they've done the same thing. Gawd knows what's in there?

No, I harvested them and put the compost back in the bag 'just for now' until I got it emptied...but didn't get the compost out. So whether a tiny potato was left in I dunno ?

Now I have done that and got a fair crop, I always let the "wild ones" grow in the garden too, free grub what ever they are.

Ohhh, well here's hoping then as I've not grown any this yr.

Old gardeners term 'volunteers' they should certainly give you a crop.

Love that term

They only get a little morning sun at the side of house, should I move them to a sunny spot , shall I start feeding ?

Well, having got a little blight I harvested them. Some good sizes amongst (lady c and Charlotte) . Pretty pleased really.
