There were days in summer we kids never came home to eat till supper time. Just picked our way through the day. I dreamed of a suit and tie job my whole childhood. Now I want my boots, gloves, and a big dung heap to plant in.

The more potato you leave in the ground is just a handful of mush later when you're digging them up. This worked for me

The last few do sprout but were leggy and white so I just composted them. Will bring my box out real soon to a light spot and try to grow some for the first time.

    I thought I was chitting, but I wasn’t. I just left lots of little seed potatoes in a box in my greenhouse, cut some in half. So now the rule of two chits per spud - and the rule of wrist for planting depth. Nice and easy. Thank you. I like the way you organise your little container beds, it will help me plan better in bigger beds. First video I have seen that explained all those things so simply. I am quite a newbie and the dragons of the allotment committee have been at me almost since I started last year. I really learned something here, thanks again fella. 👍

    I saved my mother's and aunt's potato peels for for a couple weeks and planted them in a a row near the fence along the back of the garden. A couple weeks layer I planted more of the accumulated peels. The peelings in my row produced almost the same amount of potatoes as the same length of the "properly" planted seed potato rows. They definitely were thicker peels than what I would make!
