Will they try again?

  • trina1 190 plants New Zealand9

    I optimistically planted some late potatoes at the end of February and they were growing well but have suddenly and quickly died off.

    It hasn’t got that cold yet, we did get our first frost the other day but they were already dying by then, so I’m not sure what killed them except perhaps a few days of very heavy rain & wind.

    I had a dig around today and there’s lots of tiny little potoatoes under the soil – should I pull them out or will they come away again if I leave them be?
