Chitting potatoes

Not a very exciting potato selection this year. I missed out on a trip to a specialist seed merchant and had to make do with what was available in the local corner shop.

I don't have enough room in the garden to plant potatoes in the ground so they have to go into containers wherever I can squeeze them in. That means I only need a few of each variety. The mail order catalogues don't generally offer them in small enough numbers whereas the corner shop will let me pick just half a dozen or so.

I have gone for Ruby Gem, Pentland Javelin, Charlotte and International Kidney.
