I remembered that I had planted some seed potatoes a couple of weeks earlier than the one's I harvested.
My trusty long handled fork and me found this hidden treasure:
Our first meal of new potatoes at the end of May.
Normal service is resumed.
Are you eating your new 🥔 potatoes yet?
Wow nice harvest, mine is still a few weeks away, we are eating loads of strawberries it's a good year. I'm going to dig up my onions tomorrow 🤞🤞🤞
ReplyDeleteThanks Marlene. It's been a great growing year for vegetables and flowers. Give yours plenty of water now they forming tubers.👍
DeleteYay! Result!
ReplyDeleteOurs aren't quite ready yet. Hope yours were good?
Ambrosia for ye gods JayCee. You can't buy that freshness in the shops. That's a blog post for tomorrow. Thanks.😀
ReplyDeleteYes, potatoes! That's what we expect from you Dave. Steamed, airfried. Yum
ReplyDeleteYep Linda.😀 "All good gifts around us are sent from Heaven above". And the "Specials Offers" aisle in Lidl. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteOnce - while upon the island of Jersey, we saw new potatoes being picked in the last week of March! What a great find you had today and your potatoes look very clean and healthy. No blight there.
ReplyDeleteI would love to visit Jersey YP. We once flew by helicopter from Penzance to Tresco in the Scilly Isles. The sea was gin clear and no cars were allowed on the island. No wonder Harold Wilson retired to these islands. England's Caribbean.
ReplyDeleteNo blight yet. It's been a remarkable year for weather and growing.
I love finding “lost treasures “.
ReplyDeleteOur winter starts tomorrow so no potatoes from the garden
Although I did get a great crop in our summer and look forward to planting more next spring
Thanks for your comment Angela. I have planted potatoes indoors in pots and harvested them at Christmas. We've been recently planting winter vegetables like Brussel sprouts, red cabbage and leeks.
