Growing Potato

10 Dec 08 Jennie (Australia - sub-tropical climate)
I also am having trouble with my first crop of potatoes (in Sydney) I have planted most in vegie garden and some in pots. With the ones in the vegie garden two thirds have died off before flowering - one third are starting to flower but don't look too healthy. The ones in the pots haven't flowered yet. They were planted end of July. Any ideas greatly appreciated!
