Bank them up well.
Also trying Golden Wonder but early signs aren't good, the one I dug up
yesterday had only small spuds that had all been ruined by Woodlice,
thousands of them! I can't type what I said, ladies present.


Golden Wonder is one of the worst.
Earthing up is something that's often dispensed with on deep beds - I
think that's a big mistake, it makes a huge difference to the amount
of slug damage - and to the number that go green.
