Tatties in my compost bin !!!

Potatoes seem to grow from the smallest sliver, sometimes growers will slice their seed potatoes up so as to get more to plant. In my experience these self sown pots like yours never produce any worthwhile tubers, in fact I actively pull them up and get rid of them as there is a slight possibility they may carry blight from last year and could infect the rest of the plot. Have a go at digging one out to see if it has any new potatoes forming on the roots, you might get lucky!

Slugs in the bin? Thats the best place for them, they are helping you in there by chomping up your rubbish - think of them as your friends in your bin - but not anywhere else!
