18th February and I have now planted up a couple of double rows of earlies, Rocket and Accord in one of my polytunnels. With luck I will be digging my first meal early in May. If you haven’t started already and you want nice new potatoes by the end of May from an outdoor crop now is time to get the bed prepared. You can find out everything you need to know about growing new potatoes from watching the video and checking this web site.
Meanwhile, I go daily to my greenhouse to see how the seedlings are coming along. Everything is ‘up’ and growing on strongly in the warmth. In a week or so I will be able to start to pot up the first tomatoes!
