Hi Ivan, do you have any vids or tips on containing pumpkin plants and how to get max growth from one. My 1 seems to be crawling with some parts about to flower.
Thanks, Barry
not bad at all in the end and wouldn't be surprised if the squishy ones were just the remains of the original seed
Great update Ivan, 2.33 pounds not bad for first reveal. Hope you enjoy them.
Hi Ivan.
Now that was interesting.
Cos you had at least one potato that was turning red.
I wonder if you originally planted reds and because you harvested early the "red" colour hadn't developed yet.
Same thing happened to me last year…reds went in, whites came out, lol.

Hi Ivan, watch your videos daily, are we supposed to allow potato plant to flower or pinch them out. Any advice would be great. Thanks
๐ค๐ค๐ค .
Fantastic time to eat now :] i always get good results from bags/pots ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
Id be happy with that mate, just over a kilo from 2 seed potatoes ๐
Brilliant โค๏ธ
This is my third year of tatties in pots, some quite big containers but I have a feeling I'm not planting them deep enough, should they be nearer the bottom of the pot? I usually put them about a quarter down it.

Nice harvest of potatoes Ivan, great for two seeds ..
Those tiny potatoes are great cooked in with green beans. Also in stews and soups. Great harvest. Mine did not do that well. I have one more container to empty.
Ivan great vid , have you tried growing in hay or straw mulch , the results are outstanding
Like with carrots, it's always exciting to see how plants growing away under the soil are doing. Great harvest!
Some of my kestrel spuds have broken stems too. Second earlies planted in early april. A cat was sleeping in the shade of the foliage! ๐ Wondering how they'll be.
Looks like a great crop off 2 seed potatoes. Had my first earlies today….delicious
Hiya, Cani ask if you would normally compost the potato foliage or do you just bin it?
Well done Ivan yummy potatoes dib dib dib lol I once tried to pay for my shopping with a block of lurpak butter and when i got home found my purse in the fridge ๐ฎ
If there's one thing that I hate in the weather, it is wind – just destroys so much in the garden. Can be heart breaking sometimes. Glad you got some decent spuds anyway. Lol at finding your dibber – I'm forever misplacing my garden tools. I don't know how as I only have a tiny garden ๐คฆโโ๏ธ๐
๐๐ would be interested in knowing how to preserve potatoes sometime during season. Got lots coming . Eary, intermediate and .ain crop.
Morning what size pot would you recommend for courgettes please?
Those very tiny potatoes you're throwing away are wonderful in soups.
Gran resultado
I've got a potato plant that still hasn't sprouted….Purple ones to be exact – I suspect the seed could have rotted away. Is what it is innit.
I detect a little bit of tarn accent. Where you from?
I know you harvested this plant because it was damaged but how do you generally know when to harvest potaoes? Xx
