Well, we finished ‘chitting’ our potatoes, and have planted them. Mrs Bromley went shopping and bought two big plant pots.
We all took turns at putting soil into the tubs. After filling the tubs to about halfway up, we put the seed potatoes into the soil.
After that, we filled the tubs up with soil. Mrs Bromley also put some ‘Miracle Grow’ in to help the potatoes to grow.
Mrs. Mooney’s mum grows lots of potatoes, and she has given us lots of tips on how to look after our potatoes – thanks very much.
We need to make sure our potatoes are looked after during the spring break, so if you are willing to take one ofthe tubs home, please let Mrs. Bromley know.
Hopefully, we should see something happening soon!
The tubs are at the school entrance, please have a look if you are passing.
