Growing Potato

If you keep building up the compost as it grows you will get more potatoes from your crop. Just be sure to protect them from frost. Growing my first crop atm and have found potatoes as big as a 50c piece after a month and a half. Don't let the nitrogen get too high or the energy will go to the leaves instead of the potatoes.
