Chitting Potatoes

I have cleared my potatoe bed and covered with some Black plastic to warm up the soil ready to get some manure.

Great advice from Allotment Vegetable Growing

"Chitting is simply placing the potatoes in a frost free place with indirect light and will produce short strong shoots, getting them away to a faster start. You can use egg cartons or seed trays to keep them in. Don't forget to label them so you don't get confused as to variety come planting time." -Allotment Vegetable Growing
