The land freed up by the spuds has been planted with winter cabbage, broccoli and leeks. I'll probably plant some green manure on any left over clear ground. Usually I did the spuds too late to use the ground so the blight has helped in that way! All mine now dug – small and damaged ones to be cooked up for the chickens and others put into storage.

I think washing them might be overkill, but it is a good way of noticing the ones with damage etc, and then you eat those first. must dig the rest up today... you too eh? boo.

May not wash them but storing in small bags is an excellent idea. Of the ones I dug yesterday just one had any obvious signs of blight so I am hoping the others will store OK. Next job is to find a dark, cool, mouse free storage area. "lol" I’ve cut the tops of my blighted spuds and was going to dig them up this afternoon.
