Recommendations for seed potatoes?
Hello everyone,
Last year I grew first early potato 'Arran Pilot', on Bob H's recommendation, I believe. This year, I will grow them again, but would like to try another flavourful, non-floury potato that offers reasonably high yields. It would help if it were readily available so I can purchase it at a local gc. I was very happy with the Arran Pilot, Bob(if, indeed, it was you) and I got a reasonable crop. I only grow in very large tubs, which affects the yield, but because there is no slug damage, I enjoy the fulness of the yield. My father always grew 'Dunluce' (on a Sth Yorkshire clay/silt allotment) and was always delighted with them. Alas, because I only need a few, I don't really want to put in a big order with T&M who, infuriatingly will not accept a potato order with a larger seed/decoratives order. I would rather buy locally and be able to inspect the seed potatoes. Also, if anyone can recommend a good second early potato, I would be interested, thank you. If it can be left to make some early maincrop pots, that would great but not an absolute necessity. Thank you for your time. -- Spider from high ground in SE London gardening on clay |
