"Just back from my allotment and did the math - (just dug up the last of my potatos) - This years bad weather, I've got 3.5kg per Sqm - So I hope robs customer like potatos, as that is 110% of their annual calorie intake sorted!"
Bigyin replied to Robert Stoutzker's discussion POTATO YIELD"I hope so. Going on David's worse case scenario he/she would be producing enough for about 1Kg/day. Assuming two consumers that's a lot of spud to be getting down one's (or two's) neck and they would have to eat a lot…"
Benjamin O'Neill replied to Robert Stoutzker's discussion POTATO YIELD"Well he might like lots of spuds =]"
Bigyin replied to Robert Stoutzker's discussion POTATO YIELD"In any event, I would have thought that 180sqm will produce far more spuds than your client can eat and/or store for domestic use."
Benjamin O'Neill replied to Robert Stoutzker's discussion POTATO YIELD"It does however depend on the quality of the seed and the variety and all the other variables as described above ie water, sunlight temprature were about in the coutry your growing them ? "
PRO MemberDavid Cox replied to Robert Stoutzker's discussion POTATO YIELD
"Per plant - in 2011 I got between 4-8 Big spuds per plant and a further 3-4 smaller spuds all Kestrel potatos.
This year I got maybe 1 big spud on every other plant, and 4-5 smaller ones... All my veg strips on my allotment are 1.5m wide - spud plot…"

"Not a good idea to plant Taxus bare root - and impossible in that size....
"
PRO MemberBrian www.mibservices.co.uk replied to Robert Stoutzker's discussion TAXUS BACCATA HEDGING
"Bare root is November to March and the most cost effective surely. Root balled plants are more expensive and can be planted April - May or September - October for best results.
"
Robert Stoutzker replied to Robert Stoutzker's discussion TAXUS BACCATA HEDGING"Thanks for all these.Will definately try them. The issue as Benedict highlighted, is that Root Balls are generally the most cost effective way to move ahead, but the season has finished. "
Benedict Green replied to Robert Stoutzker's discussion TAXUS BACCATA HEDGING"Would be best to buy Taxus as root balled as generally more cost effective and reliable, but you've missed the boat for this season (November to March). Have heard of failures in recent years for Taxus planted in summer, but this is…"
