45 Rocket potatoes

Well I bought a 2kg net bag of Rocket potatoes from Wilkinsons because they looked pretty good.
The next day I opened the net to find 45 perfectly formed little potatoes, all about the size of an egg.






I am not bothered about chitting, so it was off to the prepared plot for planting.  I layed out 3 pallets on the bed to form a grid for planting.  Next step was to make some nice holes using a long handles bulb planter I purchased a few years ago from B&Q.  I popped the potatoes in and guess what, I had 45 holes and 45 potatoes.....well done Wilkinsons I say for knowing how many potatoes to put in the bag!




The brassicca seedlings are coming on nicely


Happy plotting.
