Have just tipped out two big containers (Saxon and Karlena) to harvest the pots but there are no more pots that I would have got had I grown them in traditional rows.
On examining the plants you can clearly see a big root ball at the base which is where the potatoes were, but the stem then rises in a big green rope to the surface but with no signs of additional side roots as I was led to expect would happen.
It may well be that I did not water enough but I also wondered whether there was some other more fundemental problem such as the wrong type of potatoes to do this with.
Anybody any ideas?
Thanks Steve
