One for the allotment owners. For years wife has used Maris Piper potatoes for roast potatoes but recently she has found them to be of poor quality irrespective of where she buys them from so has had to resort to King Edward or Red Desiree to roast. Has anybody else found this and do Maris Piper suffer from some disease this year?

Spuds vary from year to year, I always use Reds such as Desiree, Romano or Stemster....but that's only because I grow them.

I thought this was about an infectious issue with your own spuds :wozza:


Maris Pipers do suffer from blight sometimes.
Best stick with King Edwards.
