Christmas Spuds

Right, That settles it. I'm going to give it old college try and see how i get on!

For what it will cost and for the little space it will take up i might as well.

Absolutely! Good luck with them.
I had some delicious new potatoes from Tesco Finest range the other week and planned to grow from them, but they were so moreish they somehow got eaten and now I can't remember what they were

Ours are Maris Peer, they're quite widely sold as "baby potatoes", you know, the really expensive ones! That's what we got last year, a couple of plates of small spuds. I told the kids that's what we wanted because they're more expensive

I'm trying out this thing I saw on Youtube, growing in 30L buckets and in layers of compost and woodchip. One of Anya and one of Maris Piper. I'm tols it's not the right time but I thought I'd try it out. Planting some out in open ground wherever I find space too - surprise potatoes are always nice.
