Thanks for holding them up to the camera so we could see how squishy they were 🤗
Thank you
Feels like a tough year for potatoes! I'd still be so chuffed with the harvest even that little one! It will still taste nice 🌱🙃
Fingers crossed!
Those very tiny potatoes you're throwing away are wonderful in soups.
Great
Thank you Linda
Well done Ivan yummy potatoes dib dib dib lol I once tried to pay for my shopping with a block of lurpak butter and when i got home found my purse in the fridge 😮
Good one haha
Thank you
Those tiny potatoes are great cooked in with green beans. Also in stews and soups. Great harvest. Mine did not do that well. I have one more container to empty.
Sounds good
Fingers crossed for next time
Thank you Connie
not bad at all in the end and wouldn't be surprised if the squishy ones were just the remains of the original seed
Possible..at least it turned out alright in the end
Thank you Nicholas
Brilliant ❤️
Thank you Donna

Fantastic time to eat now :] i always get good results from bags/pots 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Thank you Ryan
Looks like a great crop off 2 seed potatoes. Had my first earlies today....delicious
Hope you enjoy
Thank you Edwina
Like with carrots, it's always exciting to see how plants growing away under the soil are doing. Great harvest!
Thank you Charlotte
Great update Ivan, 2.33 pounds not bad for first reveal. Hope you enjoy them.
Thank you Sheila
If there's one thing that I hate in the weather, it is wind - just destroys so much in the garden. Can be heart breaking sometimes. Glad you got some decent spuds anyway. Lol at finding your dibber - I'm forever misplacing my garden tools. I don't know how as I only have a tiny garden 🤦♀️😅
Thank you Hannah
Much appreciated
Id be happy with that mate, just over a kilo from 2 seed potatoes 👍
You and me both!
Thank you Dave

Great suggestion!
Thank you Bonnie

Thank you Cate
🤙🤙🤙 .
Thank you Barbara
Ivan great vid , have you tried growing in hay or straw mulch , the results are outstanding
Not yet!
But maybe next year i will try it
Thank you John
Hi Ivan.
Now that was interesting.
Cos you had at least one potato that was turning red.
I wonder if you originally planted reds and because you harvested early the "red" colour hadn't developed yet.
Same thing happened to me last year...reds went in, whites came out, lol.
🤔🤔🤔🤔🤯🤯🤯🤯
Hi Dandy just checked what i bought and they are Kestrel a 2nd early potato with red marks
Thank you
Some of my kestrel spuds have broken stems too. Second earlies planted in early april. A cat was sleeping in the shade of the foliage! :D Wondering how they'll be.
They will keep on growing a while and it will soon be time to harvest
Thank you Phil
Hi Ivan
If I grew the little berries on the top, should I let them dry out before sowing them? And when should they be planted please?
Also Epsom salts- the only ones I could think of are the bathing ones in home bargains, bought them and used a pinch at a time in a watering can, only today I found westlands Epsom salts, will they work the same or have I killed my broad beans?
Thanks Ivan for your great channel full of advice
Yes they need to be mashed soaked then dried out
Sow seeds as normal indoors early in year then plant out after last frost
Thank you Samantha
Hiya, Cani ask if you would normally compost the potato foliage or do you just bin it?
Hi i normally bin it
I've got a potato plant that still hasn't sprouted....Purple ones to be exact - I suspect the seed could have rotted away. Is what it is innit.
I detect a little bit of tarn accent. Where you from?
It is possible
originally im from Nottinghamshire
Thank you
This is my third year of tatties in pots, some quite big containers but I have a feeling I'm not planting them deep enough, should they be nearer the bottom of the pot? I usually put them about a quarter down it.
Hi
I plant them 4 inches from the bottom
Thank you
@@ivans-gardening-allotment-uk ah I did wonder if I wasn't putting them deep enough, thank you 💜
Hi Ivan, do you have any vids or tips on containing pumpkin plants and how to get max growth from one. My 1 seems to be crawling with some parts about to flower.
Thanks, Barry
Hi Barry only one i have done is on Container Jack Be Little Pumpkins but they are miniature ones
Thank you
@@ivans-gardening-allotment-uk Cheers Ivan
Hi Ivan, watch your videos daily, are we supposed to allow potato plant to flower or pinch them out. Any advice would be great. Thanks
Not all 1st and 2nd early potatoes flower but if they do harvest after the flowers have died back usually around 17 weeks
For maincrops let them completely die back before harvest
I know you harvested this plant because it was damaged but how do you generally know when to harvest potaoes? Xx
Hi Steph
First and second earlies are usually ready after
12 weeks first early
17 weeks second early
wait for them to flower and let all the flowers die back before harvesting
For main crops wait until the whole plant as died back then cut off the tops and leave unwatered for 2 weeks this will toughen the skins and then they will store longer
Thank you
@@ivans-gardening-allotment-uk wow thank you so much. I have some rocket salad and maris pipers but had no idea on harvest... the plants themselves look really nice and healthy though. Thank you so much ivan!! Xx
Morning what size pot would you recommend for courgettes please?
Morning Edwina i would use 20-30 litre
Thank you
Thanks for holding them up to the camera so we could see how squishy they were 🤗
