Seed PotatoesJust a Chance

This post is mainly for my UK readers. If you need some more seed Potatoes check out your local B & Q. I've just got back from my local B & Q where they are selling seed Potatoes (discounted) for £1.50p per bag. There were around 25 good sized Potatoes per bag and I only discarded 6 which were in bad condition from 4 x 1.75kg bags. King Edwards, Desiree and a couple of more varieties were available.

    1. You are welcome Julie, hope you find some, I think they are a bargain even if they are a bit over chitted.

  2. They have some mighty shoots on them

    1. Probably why they were being sold off cheaply, but the shoots were in good condition and not brittle although I removed a few. The Potatoes were in good condition so I took a chance.

  3. Were they selling growing space ("Real Estate") at similarly reduced prices??

    1. Unfortunately not Mark. I may get caught out for space if I don't get the rest of the Dandelions shifted soon and its been pouring with rain for the past 24 hours again.

    1. Hope your local store has got the same offer on. I think spuds will be in short supply again later this year.

    1. Sorry you missed the bargain Elaine. I only went into B & Q to spend a gift voucher and because it was raining. I came out with 4 bags of potatoes and 60 gladiolus bulbs for 98 pence.
