FIRST ATTEMPT AT POTATOES IN POTATO BAGS.......


FIRST ATTEMPT AT POTATOES IN POTATO BAGS.......

This is my first attempt at growing potatoes in potato bags, and am quite pleased at the way they've grown and how healthy they're looking, I've heard so much about these bags, and I must say I am pleased up till now anyway, but it remains to be seen what sort of crop I get from them. I've grown Maris Peer and Maris Piper. I've grown 9 bags.

Sorry your didnt do very well Paul, maybe better luck next time. perhaps you never put enough potatoes in the bag. How many did you plant in a bag?
