  • Christmas potato help please

    Help please! I know I put this at the end of another thread, but I am rather in a hurry to see if anyone has any ideas!
    Sprayed my tattie leaves with copper sulphate yesterday to ward off any signs of blight.
    Have got a bale of straw to cover them in readiness for next frost - trying to be prepared this time - thats if they recover from this time!
    CanI spray them again - there is another frost forecast for this coming Thursday.....should I just cover them in straw, or spray them again just in case?
    DDL many thanks for any tips/advice!

    Wish I could offer some advice DDL, but I'm afraid I know less than you! Will keep my fingers and toes crossed that they pull through the frosts and you get some lovely xmas spuds from them!

      Are your spuds in the greenhouse, in pots, outdoors in the garden, or what? Spraying won't do much good this time of the year - if they're outside cover them with fleece. If they're in the greenhouse they should be OK.
