I've been growing "swift" new potatos in grow bags. I cut the bag in half to make two large 'pots' and put in a couple of seed potatos. And it works really well. We had eleven good sized new spuds from a bag last weekend. after emptying and checking I put the compost back into the bag and sow a few carrots in there. I get two crops from my grow bag. And compost can then go back into a raised bed. I've been doing this for a couple of years and its always been sucessful.
Hi advice please…? Am growing pots for the first time, an early variety. Until recently I had two rows of very healthy looking plants. Then one at the end of a row started turning a bit brown, not as severly as the potato blight pics I’ve found on here but it seems to have now spread right along one row and into my second. the first problem plants leaves are now turning yellow. Is this blight and if so can I fix this? Or is this a result of something I have/haven’t done? Thanks
Help. What is the name of the tool that Monty Don used in last weeks program to create a trench for his potatoes? It looks like a flat piece of metal joined at right angles to the handle
