Another great step here at the Eco-House, chitting our first potatoes!
We’ve been collecting eggboxes for a little while now so we’d be ready, and today I took the kids out to the Hulme Garden Centre in advance of this Sunday’s Potato Day. Here’s our haul, all ready to “chit”:
I got a whole range of different ones to try, to try and liven up one of our less exciting, but important, crops:
Swift – First Early
Pink Fir Apple – Salad Variety
Maris Peer – Second Early
Setanta – Highly Blight Resistant Maincrop
Kestrel – Second Early
Sarpo Mira – Blight Resistant Maincrop
Sarpo Axona – Blight Resistant Maincrop
Salad Blue – Blue-fleshed Salad Potato
