Are they ready to eat yet?

The potatoes have sprouted. Perhaps not quite ready yet. There are 3 rows of them each with a different variety.
Doug is a potato expert and even did a training course at Dundee tech (or somewhere like that - Dundee anyway) and worked 'Potato Roguing' some summers while at University. I think the rows might have been a bit further apart than ours as there is no need to walk between the rows to see them all here...

  1. I'd always had Doug down as a bit of a potato rogue! Don't you grow spuds in long raised V-shaped thingies? Dunc.

    1. We are planning on heaping soil on them sometime soon... not sure if it is quite right... but hey ho.
      We also should have planted a bit further apart, we thought it was better to get them in even if we didn't manage to do everything 100%. All a learning experience!
