If they have 'Accent' available, I would go for them. Waxy flesh, good as an
early crop and also heavy cropping as a main crop. I'm still eating mine now
(stored in hessian sacks in outside util' room). Another plus, they have
very thin skins, I don't bother to peel em'.

Bought 2 x 7lb bags of seed this pm at £1.95 each from Trago Mills (Stack em
high, sell em cheap) plus 2 bags of shallots. Too cold to do any weeding,
I'll probably weed, dig and plant as I go ....... in the Spring.

Graffiti and poet's licence. Refresh my memory, when's the best time for
planting tuits.
Trad Easter, but this event seems to move dates every year. Am using I'll
lay out in open boxes (cheening or chitting) say, 2 weeks before planting?
p.s. had great reults with 'Golden Wonder' floury, great as saute'.
2005, huge folliage growth (5 foot plus) but tiny spuds. Hmmm, stick with
something like King Edwards methinks.

Tuits are serendipitous.

The best time for planting is said to be on Good Friday. If I'm planting
them, they go in serendipitously, though.

Yes, but it may just have something to do with the phases of the moon,
easter or potatoes, take your pick.

The ground's not that hard.In this neck of the woods, we bury our easter
eggs in straw.
