Potatoes for christmas question
Hi All, I have some potatoes in the special potato buckets and have gone out
this morning to find some of the helms broken off. Will the potatoes on this plant still grow or will the produce be affected. There are two sets of leaves at the base of the plants left on. Thank you Donna |

Potatoes for christmas question
The message
from "Donna UK" contains these words: Hi All, I have some potatoes in the special potato buckets and have gone out this morning to find some of the helms broken off. Will the potatoes on this plant still grow or will the produce be affected. There are two sets of leaves at the base of the plants left on. After the haulm has been removed the skins of the potatoes will harden, which, if the tubers are left in the soil for a fortnight or three weeks, helps them to keep. If the others are still growing, the skins won't harden so rapidly - until the haulm dies. -- Rusty Direct reply to: horrid dot squeak snailything zetnet point co period uk Separator in search of a sig |

Potatoes for christmas question
Something is eating all the leaves slowly but surely off one of my potatoes
and am hoping that I actually get a crop off it. Its looking rather bare on one side |
