This will be my first growing year as a novice allotmenteer having taken on a plot for the very first time in October.
I have purchased & been chatting two types of potatoes: Charlotte & Sarpo Mira.
The Charlottes have really thick chits but the potato body is quite squishy and the tops look to have gone green. Watching Monty Don planting potatoes on gardeners world this weekend he said if the potatoes go green they are poisonous. Should I therefore assign these to the bin?
The Sarpos seem to be coming along nicely.
For future reference are Charlotte's early, middle, or late potatoes.
Many thanks,
Paul
