Hi all

We have been digging our 2nd early Kestrels and, probably due to the
drought, the yield is poor.
Now we are getting some rain, will the remaining plants increase their
number and size of tubers or is it too late?
They are just at the lost flowers stage.
The same question also applies to our Maris Piper main crop. *They are just
flowering and we will probably start digging these in a month or so.
Will their yield catch up, or is the damage done?

TIA

In my experience Kestrel isn't a huge cropper anyway and you've
probably got all you're going to get from that. The maincrops should
be OK so long as they continue to get water.
They've probably got quite a lot of bulking up still to do.
