It seems to have helped a little. Depressing morning here. Sprayed field is top picture probably 60% frost damage. Lower pic unsprayed closer to 90% damage. Was planning to start irrigation next week. No need now [emoji22]View attachment 878540View attachment 878541

That’s not nice I had couple of acres below fleece about 12”high and they were touched also.

Bloody hell thats bad, I have never heard of frost damage on potatoes at this stage before in north Scotland so I imagine it’s not a common thing, will that crop recover?
