OK so I noticed this on Sunday if you can see the flowers starting to die so this hopefully could mean that the potato's are getting ready to harvest. However there has been something going around the allotment this year.

But as you can see there is little sign showing of the plants wilted or that the leafs turning yellow. That gives me a good feeling for our first potato crop. I asked a fellow allotment grower on what he thought of the potato flower. I've always been told that you should wait for the flower to completely die out. That is the sign that it's ready to harvest. So next time down the allotment I have a look and maybe I'll have potato's.
