Apologies if we already have a thread!

What are you growing, when are you planting? (I know Spec already has an experiment underway)
I’ll be growing kingsman , pink gypsy & Charlotte.
Kingsman is chatting as we speak. Will be picking up the others at the weekend.
No idea when I’ll be planting, yet.

Does Kingsman has a lot to say?
No potatoes growing here.

Pentland & Charlotte will be going in in the next week or 2
Setanta & Desiree will go in a week or 2 after the earlies

Hi Jen

Not enough space or not worth the return?
Growing nicola. Have a potato sack in cold frame, and one in a deep pot in garage to get a head start, not sure either are going to work. Then will be doing a variety of some in ground and some in potato sacks.
Charlotte,Desiree,Maris Piper, reds from the fridge and homegrown Elfe. Big Grin All chitting on the bedroom windowsill at present. I might plant a few Charlottes in buckets for the greenhouse soon. Sleepy
I initially had Desiree & Maris Piper and then got Charlotte & Pentland Javelin while in Wilko today!

A bit of both.  Never had much success, don't eat that many and would rather have the space for other things, same goes for brassicas except kale.  I may put some potatoes in a pot for Christmas though. When I did grow pots I liked Wilja.
