potato surprise !

Hi, despite the weather my potatoes have done really well and taste lovely. I got a surprise today when I realised some of the flowers had turned into little potatoes/seeds ! This is probably normal but it is the first time I have noticed them. Are these actually seed potatoes now ? Can they be kept and used ?

Thanks John. I'll buy again next year.

Also, bear in mind that the fruit of the potato plant (the things I think you're referring to) is very poisonous. Grown ups should be fine as we know not to eat stuff without knowing what it is, but if there are kids around, just make sure they know not to touch them.

 

Likewise the potatoes grown from seed may have too much Solanine in them. You don't want to be finding out the hard way.
