Potatoes in compsost experiment - failure!
Having a few seed potatoes left earlier this year, I thought I'd try
some in a year old compost heap. They sprouted quite spectacularly - some had a bush sized foilage until recently. So tonight was crop time. The garden pots were reasonable, though a little small. Then onto the compost heap, which, frankly were an embarassment, there were 2 or 3 of around a inch round, the vast majority were half an inch round. So they have obviously put their energies into growing tall, yet not developing the potatoes beneath them. Why is this - soil too rich? Ta Alan. -- To reply by e-mail, change the ' + ' to 'plus'. |
