Potatoes Are In

I spent a few hours down on the plot this Saturday morning and planted all my potatoes out. I’m growing Estima again (see last years plant out) and I’m also growing Maris Piper this year too.

Frank and Dave were next door planting their’s out and they were using a pogo-stick type thingy to simply make the holes to plonk the seed potato in. If my plot didn’t need a good dig over and weed I would have done it that way myself. As it was I had a jolly good time with my best spade digging away all morning - I’m hoping to be able to stand up straight again soon!

    I am doing some research into why people are getting into allotments in such big numbers at the moment for a college project. What they get out of having them and whether they think it is something they will keep up into the future.
    Do you have any thoughts or comments that will help me??
