I now have permission from SWMBO to do a bit of veg growing in pots. Conversation was prompted by the arrival a short time ago of a 2m high blue spruce, that instead of being delivered as a root ball was delivered in this monster pot:

It's even bigger than the pots I saved from some other trees I bought a while ago. I've earmarked a bit of spare land where I can probably put three or four large pots, just need to decide on what potato varieties to grow. Probably best to phase them, but not at all sure which do best in pots, or whether the variety makes any difference. Probably 30 years since I last grew potatoes, and back then was when we had a proper veggie plot (when the neighbour's cat wasn't using it as a latrine).
Anyone got any tips for varieties of potato that do well in pots, please? Be nice to have some earlies, followed by some bigger ones as a main crop later in the year.
