Is it not early for spuds too? I put them in towards end of month after a good chitting.
Am up north though so have to wait longer for things to warm up & get going.
Thing is spuds left in the ground from last year they'd still grow new plants, so I guess putting them in the soil now they'd still be ok.
A frost in late April / early May killed all the young growth & knocked mine back a bit last year but they recovered from it. Probably reduced yield though but hard to know for sure.

Main crop potatoes go in the ground in April generally. Earlies can generally be planted from mid March.

Main crop spuds worth putting in soon? Got a bed ready but was gonna dump some extra woodchip in there to ease lifting.
