I tried growing potatoes twice, both times the plants grew big and healthy, but they suddenly died on me, no idea why except for the hot weather here I guess.

In 1995 I left Australia for an extended stay in the UK. When I left the shops sold 1 or 2 types of potato, when I returned in 2007 they were selling at least 8 varieties. The appreciation for using a range of varieties has definitely increased.

I think our climates must be very much the same. The Summer heat wipes the potatoes out pretty early here too. The 2 types that do well for me are Early Rose and La Rata.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16158876102857017553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791441406225351573.post-17614380257561592572012-10-28T00:50:20.123+10:302012-10-28T00:50:20.123+10:30Selamat Hari Raya Haji...., hmmm teringin nak tana...Selamat Hari Raya Haji...., hmmm teringin nak tanam potato pulak bila tenguk cantiknya hasil.Bangchik and Kakdahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12539360678677230463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791441406225351573.post-68704157614948464092012-10-28T00:24:14.077+10:302012-10-28T00:24:14.077+10:30Have you grown Water Chestnuts?

I usually grow varieties described as "salad potatoes" which are normally small and quick-growing. Blight is a big problem here and I avoid Maincrop potatoes, which stay in the ground a long time, because they always get affected. The term "floury" means they are crumbly and easily fall apart when cooked (therefore good for Mark Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04558305122821209520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791441406225351573.post-26740556892255983552012-10-26T14:17:42.318+10:302012-10-26T14:17:42.318+10:30Selamat Hari Raya Haji,
