Look at www.crocus.co.uk and I think you'll find the potato barrel.

thank you

A large plastic planter from Poundstretcher or an old plastic compost sack or a hessian sack or what I use - old plastic cistern tanks - are perfectly adequate and will cost you a lot less!!!! You can use anything with a couple of drainage holes in the bottom!! I know I'm a stingy so-and-so lol

You know what sid your right. I'll go to the pound shop and see what they've got. The cheapest barrels I can find is £19.99 plus I have heard that they are only good for 1st earlies

Oh I'm glad i've converted you!! You'd need to grow a lot of potatoes to cover your 20 quid!! I've got Charlotte potatoes in my cistern tanks - it's dead easy, but the hard thing is keeping them watered - they need watering twice a day on really hot days. (not that we get many of those.... lol)

Unless you do not have the space grow your potatoes in the ground! Far better crop yeald!

Yes, most things do better in the ground.

Thanks Sid and MG
