Having always grown potatoes in pots with success, I am stumpted as to why when i had lifted a few plants the other day - there are no spuds!? Some plants had a few but it was a poor show! The varieties are Aran Pilot and Sharpes express. They are about 8 weeks in the ground - is it still abit early? There were a few small supds but not really many at all compapred to previous lots.
Could it be due to so much wet weather and the seasons being a bit off? I started them off at the end of March in trenches filled with manure (Westlands bagged stuff not fresh)
Should I leave them a bit longer or is it a bit optimistic to think they will make up the volume!
