Argh, potatoes....

Post: # 231149Post sarahkeast »

I am about to go mental if another potato from last year grows up in my neat rows of onions and super slow to start carrots :shock:

I have been easing them out with a trowel and my neighbour has been replanting them as she has space, so at least they arent all wasted, but come on :shaking: enuf already.

Any suggestions ? I know I will clear out this years spuds a LOT more carefully :banghead:

Glad I'm not the only one with super slow to start carrots. There are spuds coming up in amongst mine, too, and this house hasn't been occupied for three years!
