    Hi
    I'm Tim from Saddleworth. I'm new to gardening but managed to grow some nice potatoes this summer...despite the slugs.

    Thanks in advance for your help

          Jenny - I got a few types from B&M and put them in grow bags. I don't think I have any photos other than ones I put on Facebook (as you do...) which I may be able to find.

          I did try some at the front of the house (unsuccessful) which may be the root of my current flooding problems (see other thread) which prompted me to join the forum!

                    Welcome to GC Tim! You'll like it here, but be warned its addictive!

                    I'm glad to hear that you were successful with the potatoes in the bags, as I am going to do them next year; I'd appreciate any tips you have, or pics for that matter :)
