Hi,

I've got some well chitted first earlies, wanted to plant this weekend,
but
is it wise with the frozen ground? should I wait? or wont it matter?

Don't plant in frost. The old saying is, plant potatoes when the earth
is warm enough to sit on without your trousers.

Yes, but you'd need your thermals right now, no?
