| Harlequin and Toluca potatoes |
See how the Toluca have that creasing/indentation, they always seem to do that with mine.

Two Potato Plants
Yesterday I wanted some potatoes to roast (Greek style) to enjoy with green beans cooked with tomatoes. So I went to one of the Toluca rows - they really are the most potatoey-tasting potatoes - and dug up 4 monsters, which I have kept for today's dinner. So, I went to a row of Harlequin, and dug, and dug, and just kept digging and they just kept coming, what a haul from one plant. The picture tells it all, a few giant Toluca, and the rest of the basket all Harlequin, one plant of each dug up.

Many of my Dark Red Norland potatoes had that creasing this year. I'd never had them do that before. I wonder what causes it.
I really don't know. Here we had a a cold spring, then some rain, then a hot spell, then rain, so I wonder if it's something to do with water - the frequency and amount?
