Tattie Picking Week in Biology

| 0 comments

Back in May the S4 Biologists set one tattie while studying plant propagation.    We put it in a bucket and set it outside to grow.  We have checked on it through the year and observed the plant going through all the stages, including flowering.

On the 9 October, on the eve of “Tattie Picking Week” we harvested our tatties.

How many tatties do you get fuy a tattie” was the question and there was a prize for the nearest correct answer.

This year’s winner was Alice Irvine who guessed exactly right – 15 tatties.   Well done Alice.  She gets to take the tatties home and cook them with a little rosemary from the polytunnel.
