Hello everyone, I've been having trouble searching for previous info on this as apparently Oca is too short a word for the search engine?!
Having grown Oca for the first time last year, we decided we like it very much and want to grow lots. I have plenty of tubers to plant but would appreciate guidance on best growing methods.
Most of my plants had been grown in open ground, Devon clay, they did okay but quality was poor due to pests. The tubers had lots of holes, I think from slugs.
I had much better quality tubers from a few grown in a patio container. This could be down to sheltered patio location or soil. Could better results be achieved in a raised bed full of compost?
