Potatoes

Hi

Have anyone had potatoes with leaf curl the wife planted some in three containers and the tops of the leaf are curling any idea what the cause is or do you need a photo.

I have loads in the allotment but dont have a problem there.

 

Are they in manure, or something likely to be based on manure?

Are the leaves individually rolling upwards and inwards and becoming brittle? That could be leaf roll virus

 

Kristen here is a photo you can see some leaves curling and some seem okay anyone any ideas only added well rotted manure to compost before planting ie the leaves dont seem brittle.

 

Hi golfer. I'm thinking frost damage. Mine were frosted some weeks back, and they look very much like yours.
Cheers...freddy.
