Husband started to harvest Desiree potatoes for winter. This one weighs nearly 3lbs. Has anyone else dug up one of this size up? Good job they are good keepers as I don't eat them. 🤔

Hubby dug a whopper up last year (he's been growing Desiree for three years now) but it didn't weigh that much. Lovely spuds, also Red Duke of York are good too. Had potato blight this year on main crop, so frustrating.
Oh that's a shame. This one's knobbly and bobbly all over. It's going in the village fair compo for largest potato. 😁
It's the winner!! 😁😁

😳😳😳 wot a whopper!
Hi Diana about 40 years ago when you could buy spuds in 5Ib bags I got 1 spud in 1 bag that weighed just over 5Ib I was amazed, yours is the nearest size I have seen since, lol, good bashing, Spud Bashing regards Bevanboy
Makes mine seem tiny at 2lbs 12oz. Will see if anyone else in village compo produces anything bigger!
