I want to get hold of some seed potatoes that I can get in the ground now.
According to the books I have got I should be just at the right time to get a late maincrop going, but every online site seems to have Jan 13 as the earliest time for despatch.
I mainly want to use them to break up the ground in newly established beds, but also having a crop would be nice.
I also want a few that I can pass on to my son's fiancee as she is just getting into growing her own but only has a small concreted yard in which to do so, so it's all containers for her until I can let her have a small part of my allotment.
(only six days to go until I get the keys, if all goes well!)
So - firstly, is this the right time to get maincrop varieties in, and secondly, where can I get some appropriate tubers from that I can plant now?
Thanks
Andy
