Potatoes

This is the progress of the potatoes planted in a bag months ago. They have been a bit slow popping up. The reasons could be that I planted them too deep, the cold weather and not enough sun. I did a little experiment a few weeks ago to see if Tuscan Kale or Cavalo Nero (Brassica oleracea) can be grown from cuttings. I took a off-shoot from an old kale plant that I had cut down to a stump. I then plonked them in the potato bed/bag. They seem to be doing well.
