Good Friday Good For Potatoes?

Happy Easter everyone!
Well in accordance with tradition we have planted our maincrop potato tubers around the Good Friday weekend. One complete bed of 25 Bluebelle seed potatoes. That's all potato beds full at the allotment. First earlies, second earlies, mains; all are in the soil. I have used organic potato feed on the small bed only. We manured the large bed containing the new potatoes, some weeks prior to planting.
Just the potatoes in bags to get done now.

    Good work - we are back at the plot tomorrow barrowing compost that I unearthed on Saturday to cover all our spuds; and more to be sown in the Gertrude Franck bed. It's all go round here!
