I know spuds are good in pots - any old containers - we did them at work last year and managed not to kill 'em. Different varieties at different times i think.... Im not very good on gardening advice, i go on trial and error and ask at garden centre - clear instuctions! ....but i will ask Paul - i do know with changing climate that books are sometimes out of date nowadays...
Magazine sounds a good idea! xxx

Hi Chrissie

I think it's way too early to be thinking of chitting potatoes and starting seeds off, especially in this cold weather. I shan't be sowing any seeds before March at the earliest. I suppose you could start them off if you've got somewhere really warm to keep them, but I find that if you sow them later they usually catch up with the earlier ones.

I can't really think about the garden right now, I just want to keep warm. No doubt when the sun shines and the birds start singing, I'll get enthused.
