Taylors Potato Growing Bag

For home-grown potatoes.  Perfect for patios and small gardens.  Ideal for other vegetables.  You will need 40 litres of multi-purpose copost and 3 seed potatoes per bag.  Once the risk of frost has passed, choose a sheltered site with good drainage.  Fill the bag two thirds full of compost and water so the compost is moist.  Place 3 tubers on top of the compost, evenly spaced, approximately 15cm / 6in apart.  Be careful not to damage any that have already chitted (sprouted).  Cover with another 10cm / 4in of compost and water again.  As the plants grow, add more compost until the bag is full.  Additional potatoes will grow from covered stems.  For best results add liquid fertilizer no more than once every two weeks during the summer (a liquid tomato feed will suffice).  After approximately 12 weeks, the potatoes should be ready to harvest.  If any potatoes are green, this is because they have been too close to the surface and have been exposed to sunlight.  Do not eat any green parts as these are poisonous.  After harvesting, empty the compost onto your garden and re-use the bag for growing other vegetables.
