Hi there,

not done owt like this before, don'y know what to expect really. Freindly advise would be grand & looking at the site thats what I'll get.
Just planted some tatties in a tub, will let you know how they do. Not a lot of free space so wondered if could put others in with them.

cheers

Paul

Hi and welcome to the vine Paul. How big a bucket and how many spuds did you plant in it?

hello paul and welcome

[Flummery]

Hi, wlecome. It depends on the size of your tub and the number of spuds you've got in there. Once you've got compost up to the top you could bang in a few nasturtiums (seeds or plants) which will give a bit of colour to things. Anything else you put in there will get disturbed by the harvesting process.

Hi Paul, welcome to the 'Vine

Hi PaulK, a friendly welcome to the 'vine'. You'll soon get the hang of this growing thing. Just remember the green bits should go up and the brown bits should go down . When the spuds start to show green bits above the soil, make sure they don't get hit by frost, or else it will really slow the growth process down.

Hello Paul from another grower in South Yorkshire and a very warm welcome to the Vine. Good luck with the taters.

Very observant MrBE, have a brownie point

*ponders why DC might have spotted this thread.... Mebbe it had a spam post on it? That often drags really old ones up for some reason, and then of course the spam would be deleted!

Ahh...I did wonder! I didn't think of that...it happened to a chilli thread in Vegging Out recently too.
