Potato Growing Competition - update 4

The weather has not been the best for growing vegetables so far this year and many of the UK’s gardeners are bemoaning a slow start, including some of the amateur gardeners here at Smart Solar taking part in our potato growing competition.

Progress is very varied according to reports from the team. Lindsey who had the luxury of starting hers off in a greenhouse is winning on growth so far, closely followed by Charlotte who has hers in a sheltered spot against a wall.

Lindsey's potatoes are out of the greenhouse now and doing well outside

The rest of the team are starting to talk to their plants in the vain attempt to encourage them to grow faster! Let’s hope some sunshine will do the trick.
