Chitting potatoes

[Sylvan]

Hi ShazzaB. Welcome to the vine

There's no need to feel stupid - the answers are always obvious once you know them, and appearing daft is almost a necessity round here.

Plant them with the green stem pointing upwards.

..which way up do I plant my chitted potatoes?? Do i plant them so that the green stem is up or down?

Am sorry for appearing daft but I just cant get my head round it.

If I'd not read this forum my potatoes would have been planted upside down last year, so there must be more than me and you who didn't know this

I bet they'd manage even if you did plant them upside down. They'd probably just take a couple of days extra to show above ground.

Thank you both, hoping to plant them tomorrow if the weather stays good, so fingers crossed
