Hi all, sorry - I forgot to change the subject of my 'hello' forum message! Anyway, this is my question re my out of control spuds...I'm new to your site and I need some
potato help! I've got three bags growning in my back garden, and unfortunately they are in partial shade. I'm assuming this is why they have grown way taller than expected and are taking much longer to
flower than everyone elses in the area. Trouble is, they grew so high that they toppled over and were causing a huge mess in the small garden, so last night I pruned them - exactly as you would any other plant, by cutting cleanly just above a growth point. I'm sure the leaves will continue to bud and grow but my question is will they now
flower and if not, will the tuber that I'm waiting for actually develop or is this conditional on a
flower forming and being pollinated? If anyone can help I'd really appreciate it!
