  • Potato Problem

    My potatoes have started to yellow and die back, but havent flowered yet. They're Wilja which I thought were pretty blight resistant, and have no black spots on the leaves.

    Do I cut them down?
    Do I harvest?

    Any thoughts?

    Welcome to the Vine Alan. Not all potatoes flower. If they are yellowing and dying back they're ready. Have them up and eat them. Enjoy.

    From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.

      I agree,not all spuds produce flowers.

      Have a scrat about in the row and see what you've got.

      Should be OK.
      Please have a look at my Veg Growing Diary.

        Dig them up before the slugs get them. If the leaves are dying then they are ready no matter what the size of the spuds.
