gonna try potatoes this year for the first time, so i ordered them and
they arrived at the weekend.They are a maincrop variety ,name escapes
me. was just curious as to when i should box them up? egg cartons at
the ready so to speak..i live east of colchester in essex/east anglia
if this helps with frost areas..advice would really help thx

Carton them up now in a very cool but frost free place in light and they
will slowly make nice short sturdy green growths which should be just right
to plant at the correct time.
I chit mine in trays with a layer of potting compost in to which they root
as well as making top growth. (I do not water them btw)
