Yesterday was our official planting day for our potato growing competition.

The morning nursery used the best of the weather to plant their ‘Athlete potatoes’ in their grow bag which they have affectionately named ‘Charlie bag’. The afternoon nursery had a little but of a chillier afternoon, but we still managed to get outside and plant our ‘Rocket potatoes’ in their bag which they have named ‘Rainy bag’.

We will care for our bags for the next two months in the hope that we will get lots of potatoes that we can eat for snack. Fingers crossed.

You can help us by saying the magic spell “Grow…Grow….GROW!!!!!”

Here is a video about how easy it is to plant your own potatoes at home.
