    Evening all bob here again,I know it's probably been answered 100s of times on here but when are spuds ready for pulling?Is it when the flowers have died off or when the stems and leaves have gone mouldy and hit the deck?cheers all,Bob:thumb:

    Bob, you can try a few as soon as they start flowering, have a carefull dig around one root and see what you can find.
