Who buys Jersey Royals anyway? The most tasteless potatoes I've ever had, with very tough skins. Horrible things. Give me a nice Charlotte or Galante any day.

Can't imagine earlies will be all that early this year....

 

[Lincs Lass]

Did I hear that jersey growers were stoped from using seaweed for fertilizer last year ??.
Had some Majorcans last week ,they were tasty ,,cant beat Bostons .

New season lamb, early spuds and the language of Heaven, what’s not to like about Pembrokeshire?!

Crymych...

Happen to be I went to school there and later played for the rugby team back in the day, so can’t agree with you! Riverlea also had a sales depot there for many years, making Riverlea one of the most successful firms in Wales. Now it’s just a service centre apparently.

There’s a reason a farm on the way into Crymych is called “Siberia”!

That's the point, it is utterly dreary most of the year; the houses are all red or green, and it's not paint...

I always shy away from Jersey potatoes.

The amount of chemicals they must use to keep fields in continuous potatoes doesn't bear thinking about
Not a good idea

 

[Ruston3w]

I'd rather they got on and sold them early, If we are lucky and have something mid May then easy to sell against there stuff which is passed it/big/ugly.

Out of a heated double glazed greenhouse covered with 3 layers of bubble wrap surely ?

Probably not much in the way of chemicals used as they are all first earlies, lifted before PCN becomes a problem, from my very basic understanding of the Jersey crop.

New potatoes sold in Marks and Spencer simply food are from Israel and sold in single use plastic bags.
