The seed potatoes cost £1 and the bag in which to grow them was also from one of the pound shops (this can, of course, be re-used), the compost is multipurpose from a bag bought last year for some flower pots. There were enough potatoes to feed two of us for about 4 weeks. As an experiment it was a pleasing result. At the moment I have another bag on the go with a mix of carrots and parsnips in. I wasn't sure if mixing the seeds would work but they appear to have grown happily side by side. We have hardly any garden so container growing is our only option. I intend pulling some young parsnips for dinner tonight so will report on those later.
If anyone actually reads this post I will be thrilled :-) but if not...no matter...I am putting my thoughts down on 'virtual' paper.
