Jim Grant 4 Posted August 29, 2009 Report Share Posted August 29, 2009 OK folks, just a bit of bragging. This is part of one shaw grown in exhibition black bag. Tuber wight 350g. Total wight of bag 4.5kg. You get points for the variety. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jim Grant 4 Posted September 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 Tiercel other than it's Fir rather than Fur. Make the best chips ever. Just wash them, break them into bits and throw them into the pan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just wash them, break them into bits and throw them into the pan. I did put Fir then changed it. I have always wanted to try them but never have. I will have to next year. How do they fair against the blight as we get it pretty bad here? (west coast) TC Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Grant 4 Posted September 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 They are pretty average on blight resistance. They are a late maincrop which leaves them vulnerable for longer. I love them and always grow them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
