Went to Netto's today and noticed they had 6 seed spuds already planted in a 6 pot tray. I have already planted my earlies but these were Charlotte which I haven't got and were only 49p so I thought I would give them a go.
When I was ready for planting them at the allotment, and after soaking the pots, I was pleased to see there was a well established root system and the growing shoots were dark green. Had to dig extra deep planting holes to facilitate the compost with potato on top and still leave them 4 inches below final soil level.
A bargain I think especially as I now have a plant module for six to use as I see fit which is worth the 49p payed for the lot!
