shed door:

I've already done what Alan H is enquiring about, and for the same
reasons, except I used my shed rather than a greenhouse. I was having
a look at the tubers on Saturday, and noticed that quite a few had
mouldy spots where protosprouts had previously been. Is this a result
of frost damage?
