Agree with the sentiments, but thought he was planting the spuds a bit
close together.


I thought that was brilliant.
Many thanks for the link


Yes, a breath of fresh air.

I thought his spuds were just about right if they were earlies, and I
love his planting tool thing.(bulb planter?)

Lovely video, thanks.

I know it's a bit late, but my pots (earlies went in this morning.
Duke of York, Accord, Pentland Javelin & some Pink Fur Apple for mains.
I thought the planting was about right too. I normally srick to 15" down
the rows & 2' or so between.. Main crop slightly bigger gap along the row!
