Baby spuds

I found a bag of old spuds in the shed yesteday and was amazed to see that there were already dozens of little spuds growing from the sprouts.  And not a leaf in site.  It just goes to show how easy it is to grow them as they really want to grow and reproduce. I wonder if I left them would I have had some nice homegrown Kerr's Pinks for Christmas dinner!

Yes I did get a bit of a shock Rachel! Paul, that sounds interesting - I did a quick search but all the info that came up seemed to be about Sweet potatoes.  Will keep looking though, thanks!
