    We have just planted our main crop tubs of spuds. One tub has shop bought ones, just to experiment.🙂 Thank you Ivan.👍

    those potatoes will work great, it's more cost effective to use the ones you already have after all. Some people will argue against using them cause they have most likely come from fields where pestersides are used. But I think that's a little over the top worrying (end of the day you ate the rest of the pack XD), as long as you look after them they'll be great with a roast dinner.

    Yep great vlog…. Last year I grew shop bought potatoes (Maris piper) but I cut a chunk from each potato that had chitted, cured them for a couple of days on the window ledge then planted them up into 30l buckets 9 in total and they all gave me a decent amount of spuds so have just done the same but this time in two felt bags a couple weeks ago and two buckets yesterday, the ones in bags have already made an appearance 😊 have a great weekend!

    Thanks for the potato advice Ivan. Everything is looking good in the container garden. As always thanks for sharing.

    I've got a few potato plants that are, erm, "surprise" plants that are coming up in the bed I plan to use for courgettes this year. I am doing my own experiment in "moving" these already growing plants into some large random pots I have to see if they'll keep going and I can get some free bee potatoes out of them to clear the bed this weekend for my little courgette plants which are ready to go in. We'll see. I don't mind if the move fails I didn't expect these.

    Silly question but,

    How many potatoes would you expect to get from the initial one?
    A dozen? Two?
    Excuse my ignorance .
    Great vid tho 👍🏼

    Thx again your advice it helps me so much. I have a small veg patch and most you tube channels cater for people with allotments. So good to find someone who shows how smaller spaces can be utilised. Also I am learning a lot from you thx

    Love your down to earth (excuse the pun) blogs.
    I take shop bought potatoes that have started to sprout in multiple places & cut into chunks – one for each sprout, and plant those in bags or containers.
    Question: I always understood that it was best to cover firstly with a shallow layer of compost and top up as started to grow – is this a fallacy?

    Thanks Ivan, great tips and info' and the container garden is looking great. Have a lovely weekend. Take care and all the best. Stevie

    I can’t wait to see the harvest on these potatoes with one to a container. I planted seed potatoes from my garden last year, store bought that sprouted, and seeded. Nice update, and I am glad the beans are recovering. Take care

  15. @ausfoodgarden

    The only potatoes I grow are store bought in big containers. Mine are around 40 litre airpots. Cut and cured with a few chits on each bit.
    Always get a reasonable harvest, sometimes they do super well when conditions are spot on.
    I never replant the ones I've grown just in case. The likelihood of blight goes up every generation I think.
    Cheers from Melbourne Australia.

    Please help! I planted 4 buckets of "Yukon Gold" potatoes and put them only about 4 inches from the bottom
    and topped up about half way on each container. I have 100% sprouted and they are about 4-6 inches high and
    looking very healthy. Here's my problem. My intention was to hill them when they grow another 1-2 inches more
    but here's my question. Did I make a mistake by not giving them enough soil below to produce potatoes? Am I
    wasting my time in trying to hill them? Should I just leave them be now or continue my original plan until the soil
    is filled to the top?

    Thanks for posting this, I’ve used blood fish and bone as fertiliser, but didn’t realise I could feed with tomato feed as well, (new to growing vedge in containers) finding your videos helpful thanks.
