Autumn planted potatoes

I thought I had made it clear, but let's try again Has anyone here tried planting Potatoes in the Autumn and letting them over winter in the ground so that they get away as soon as conditions allow in the spring. I am sure I heard about this On Gardeners Question Time last year. If there is a chance of a late frost once they were up you could always cover with fleece. Not quite Autumn, but a chap on my allotments dug his first International kidney (Jersey Royals) last weekend after planting under clotches in December. Still not seen the real thing in the shops yet although you can get them by post from Jersey (for £9.95 per kilo!) Tom |

Though growing spuds under cloche I have never seen. Perhaps I'll try it - but it's very wet and humid in winter here in Manchester. Phacelia is a surest thing ) |
