POTATO REVEAL 'BLAST FROM THE PAST' DEBBIES INCREDIBLE SPUD CROP 7th August 2011

In the challenge between Debbie and Debbie's dad, 'Who Can Grow The Most Potatoes In One Bag 2011?', neglect seems to have had a predictable effect on Debbie's overall harvest. With the amount of soil in the rather large bag, we were hoping for at least ten kilos.

"did we achieve this unscientifically (AKA 'ssschhhmientifically') deduced expectation?"

  For optimum viewing clarity and pleasure, watch this video on YouTube to see the result.

Some lessons learned, although the reveal, as all reveals are?, was both exciting and fun.

Check out 'RiKs Allotment' YouTube channel's 'Potato Playlists' listed below:

ROLLING UPDATES ON THE WAY

As the idea of keeping simple records of anything, including that which is allotment and gardening related, generally, with me, there's a tendency to veer from 'simple' to, let's say, "involved"..

Further Playlists will include 'variety-specific' lists made available as they are created and will begin with varieties that are generally available in Great Britain which i aim to grow this season, including:

'CARA'

'CHARLOTTE'

'DESIREE'

'ESTIMA'

'HOME GUARD'

'JAZZY'

'KING EDWARDS'

'MARIS PIPER'

'PENTLAND JAVELIN'

'ROCKET'

'SWIFT'

plus:

'PINK FIR APPLE'

'SWEET POTATO'

followed by varieties that either spring to mind, i would like to try or that are recommended to try. Eventually, given enough time, i imagine a specific Playlist for every potato variety known to man, beast and God.

'RED PONTIAC'

Well,.. that's it for this update.
