How many did you get, how many did you plant, you can still join in.
I wont list my first lot as I dug them out a bit early so they were all a bit small and not many. Second lot were much better but I forgot to weight them:mad:, from what I recall before they got eaten I had maybe 25 potatoes. It was 3 seed potatoes from homebase, I dont know the name of the type all I know is they were bright purple
Third time lucky, I have 2 lots of seed potatoes left so I will try and remember to weigh.:rolleyes:
Edit - I really should of kept the potatoe labels, all I know is I bought one's which get smile's and another which produces purple skinned. Dam my weakness for weird looking things.0 -
I dug up the last of my free vales emerald today. I got 8lbs from 3 plants, I reckon I had about 25lbs from all 10 plants in total.0

I did three tubs/bags each with one potato in, I cannot remember the variety
tub one 1lb 4oz - the soil was really dry and there where lots of undeveloped potatoes, lesson number one make sure your potatoes have enough to drink!!
haven't got to the others yet, should I put the used compost in the bin or is ok to put it on the garden?"You've been reading SOS when it's just your clock reading 5:05 "0 -

Not really joined in with the discussions on here but I just dug up the rest of my charlottes this afternoon... A couple of weeks ago I probably got about 6 big potatoes, today I have about 16!!! The 16 weigh 2lbs... I started off with 4 potatoes in quite a small container.
Not bad for my first go!0 -

i,ve got a photo of the ones I ate yesterday (my first) but I dont know how to show you. Weighed about 2lbs. Dont know what they were either, just a spud from supermarket bag left over.
Hi there teedy23,
you have to upload onto www.photobucket.com then download onto this page but remember to scale down your photos first or they may be too big for the post
Hope this helps
