Wow, so much valuable information packed into this video. I didn't even expect to get glued to the screen like that. I recently got into regrowing kitchen scrap-veggies and potatoes came up on the list. I wasn't sure if I want to give them a try, but you convinced me. Well done!

Excellent video sir, by far the best on YT.<br>I'm actually in my 17th consecutive year of growing potatoes in buckets.<br>I thought I knew what I was doing, but your knowledge & understanding far exceeds mine.<br>One thing that I've learnt is about flower removal! So there you go Tony, in 2027 I will remove the flowers, knowledge gained thank you.<br>This year has been particularly challenging, but results have been very rewarding. 2nd crop/Xmas potatoes coming along well, along with the sweet potatoes(oh yes) all in buckets.<br>Keep up the great vids.<br>All the best from South Lincolnshire.

From my few years experience, never use fabric pots. It won't matter how much you water. Because the outside dries out way too fast you won't get potatoes at the edges. I used some woven plastic bag pots and those had potatoes out to the edges. This will be my last year using fabric pots. Hope it helps someone.

I have a very small garden. I used to grow potatoes in £1 buckets from b&q. This year I bought 4 30 litre containers and I've put them in my driveway. Can't wait to see results

Thanks to you, Tony, I am self-sufficient in potatoes grown in grow-bags. I just take the potatoes that sprout in storage and re-plant them. I'm lucky enough to live in a very mild climate where I can grow them all year round (although they do slow down dramatically in winter) and the hunt for buried treasure, AKA harvesting, never gets old.
