I've ordered far more potatoes than we have ground cleared for, but I'd read somewhere that you could just lift turves, pop the potatoes in, and put the turves back grass side down. I'm inspired to try it now after reading your post.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11269887100694066103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2977509261429741652.post-24428858226918481522009-04-14T12:41:00.000+01:002009-04-14T12:41:00.000+01:00Peggy,

I like the idea of everyone having a task and helping out at the garden - nice to work with family and friends and share in the spoils at the end of the day.<br />BarbaraBarbarapchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09990013417063903768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2977509261429741652.post-37157684044324841772009-04-14T03:14:00.000+01:002009-04-14T03:14:00.000+01:00Oh my gosh you have the most wonderful looking dir...Oh my gosh you have the most wonderful looking dirt.

That soil really does look good and it's great to see the help your getting, really does make things easier, if I could only get my own gang to follow suit, chance would be a fine thing :-). See your greenhouse there, working on that thingy for you, hopefully will sort it out this week.Veg and Flower Timehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17052379818231734226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2977509261429741652.post-385184424716349132009-04-13T20:24:00.000+01:002009-04-13T20:24:00.000+01:00Look at all those 'taters' with eyes popping out. ...Look at all those 'taters' with eyes popping out.
