Potatoes

[venus89]

... mine are all sprouting purple shoots

How are yours doing?

[Spangles]

Strange question! Guess there has been some potato give away or something? Ha ha!

Mine are just sitting in the vegetable trays waiting to be eaten as normal!

Mr Potato Head however is looking very fetching today on the book shelf.

Is that good or bad? I'll have to go and give mine a squeeze to see if they're hard or soft.....

Don't forget to do the same to the potatoes

We are going to the garden centre tomorrow to get sweet potoates to grow as DD doesn't eat white pots.

I daren't touch mine in case they fall off

Some of mine are purple too - I don't know if that's good or bad

Ah, yes - the rain collector. Whoops!

[jellytot]

when we plant our potatoes do we plant with the purple shoots up or down

[louni]

I believe you plant them with the shoots upwards (although my shoots are still tiny, even after 2 weeks of chitting!).Good luck.xx
