Maincrop or Early Potatoes
If your earlies were planted in March they should by now be dying back
naturally. The maincrop ones should still be green on top and looking as if they are still 'alive'. At least that's the timing here but you should see a distinct drooping/ dying off of the earlies well before the maincrop welshman wrote: : I've done a really silly thing and forgotten whether I planed : maincrops or earlies, can I now tell the difference by digging one up? : : : thanks.
