Another potato problem
I planted some potatoes in one of those tall plastic contraptions with
three little hatches at the bottom via which to remove the potatoes. I thought it was a good, space-saving idea at the time and the potato plants appear to be growing well. I also have three black plastic buckets with potatoes growing in them. Yesterday, I thought I'd just take a look and see if there were any potatoes ready to harvest in the plastic contraption. When I slid a hatch (one of three) to one side, all I could see was a little compost and a huge mass of thin, white roots. I have never seen so many when harvesting potatoes in the conventional manner. Can anyone advise please? If there are no potatoes, it is too late now but I wonder where I have gone wrong. The compost and weeds are compacted, so it is only possible to scrape out a little compost before coming to a halt. -- June Hughes |
