I can't stand it when one of my fur-children is at the vet's overnight; I feel bereft and weird and walk around the house thinking I've forgotten to do things. :( Here's hoping your dear sweet pup is back with you ASAP, like tomorrow morning!<br /><br />I have never even heard of planting under plastic mulch (which just goes to show how little I know), but will be running my own potato experiment this season, so will watch yours with much curiosity. :) I think the varieties available to you are different than what we have here, too, which is so fun to observe.Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11454557080455458675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8376693003192814341.post-39705454534632694172010-03-18T23:34:28.853+00:002010-03-18T23:34:28.853+00:00Oh my wee Maggie, I should be giving her a wee nig...Oh my wee Maggie, I should be giving her a wee night time cdudle before Andy puts her to bed.

I've heard other people say how they've had a great crop when they've planted through black membrane, and it's time saving too if you don't have to earth up. I never rub any sprouts off my potatoes. I've read that if you leave them be you will get a larger crop of smaller potatoes, but if you leave only three sprouts on you will get a smaller crop but the potatoes will be bigger.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.com
