Look what I made mummy

So as a follow up to my Pots of pots post last month, thought I'd report on how the initial planting of a Charlotte potato in a plastic plant pot succeeded.

I was letting the plant grow large enough before harvesting from it. It had just stopped flowering, so I left it for a bit longer while I went on holiday.



When I came back, I noticed one of the leaves had gone a little brown at the edges. Not sure if this was the onset of blight, I decided to see what crop I could achieve.

So I turned it upside down and scooped all of these out of the pot. Quite a turn-up from an emergency fix from an original plan that went horribly wrong!
