First early potatoes – are they ready?
The Digger went off to the allotment to see if the first early potato Rocket had produced anything yet. We had grown some in a large pot, started off in the greenhouse, and were quite pleased with the amount we got from just three tubers. They gave us a very welcome early crop. Now it was time to check the actual rows. You never know what you’re going to get – will the tubers be the size of marbles? Not this time. Blimey!

Wow!! Now that’s a potato.
A little scared to check mine. I’ve hilled them up with straw, but the plants are still so huge that they have toppled a bit. We’ll see…
Good size, but very little taste and useless for mashing. Won’t be trying them again!
