    Hi Adam, good job on clearing that area and putting down 3 pallett beds. Nice potato harvest, lots of planting too. Thanks for sharing and take care 😊

    Hi Adam the new beds look great and they'll look even better with the dahlias and holly hock in.👌👍

      That’s the sunniest area of the plot so they have the best conditions to thrive in. If the weather keeps up for a while it should look great.

    Hi Adam lovely job you did with the pallet collars, and your returns on a single potato are great can't complain at all there my friend

      I had some of the potatoes with my evening meal last night and they tasted fantastic. I weighed them and there was just over 3kg (6.6lb) which is a great return from 3 potatoes.

    😂 it hasn’t stopped raining here all weekend. Just back from camping it was snowing 😮 the last days we were there. Great job on the new bed Adam it will be a welcome addition for growing I’m sure. Nice to,start getting harvests it’s why we put up with rain and slugs and crap 😂. Have an amazing week, Ali 🌧️🇨🇦

      Snow in June, I thought we had it rough. I’m off to check on the dahlias in a while to see if they are still alive. Hopefully the slugs haven’t found them.

    Great harvest. Just a note: they'll last longer if you do not wash them. Just dust them off and wash just before use.

      Thanks for the tip, I wasn’t aware of that. I won’t be washing the next batch.

      I think we’re all in the same boat. We get a brief half an hour between rain showers. The strawberries seem to like it though…that’s the only positive I can find.

      If the slugs leave the flowers alone it should look great in a month or two.

      @@angelamcghee4489 I thought about nematodes but I think a lot of my slugs come from the overgrown plots next to me. I do my best to keep them under control but it’s a constant battle.
