Boulders? Not really. It was a poor year for spuds as there was so much blight about. The Apache long-chits didn’t yield a huge amount. The Sarpo Mira long chits were actually much the better of the two maincrop potatoes I did, they are blight resistant though - Desiree really didn’t do well. In general I didn’t care for them as well as I have before and lots of weeds grew up due to the weird weather. The Sarpos did really well considering, though. Probably the best maincrop I’ve tried. Tasty too. Worth saving some for seed.

Yeah those Sarpo varieties are excellent - not included in this book I got in 1993 but worth getting hold of a copy if just for the illustrations ...

So how did they go last year ?
Any 'boulders ' ?
