I was talking to my dad the other day and he said that to get bigger spuds, they used to trim back the leaves (like when trimming tomatoes) if you can understand what I mean.
When you see a new side shoot growing at the base of a leaf stem, trim it back the leaf stem.
Just wondered if this were true?
I wonder if it works, as instead of putting all it's power into doing 2 job's (making spuds and foliage), it can concentrate more fully on producing the spuds.
Ideas?
