Lifting potatoes
« on: October 06, 2010, 01:24:10 pm »
Hi all,

Probably a silly question, but been trying to lift my last bed of potatoes now for weeks. It has rained again last night, so was wondering how people dry them of before storing?

Thanks Rob.  ;D

Either wait for a sunny day or spread them out in the polytunnel.  The sun has been shining here for a couple of days now and more promised this coming week.  Haven't lifted mine yet as I can't decide whether to or not, in case the stored ones get frosted like last year.
