Hi Dayna, If it is crown gall, and I'm not convinced it is, you can take cutting and be confident you won't pass it on, anyway that is what I've found. If you...
I think the decision of what to do has some latitude. I think that Ken is correct in believing that 'taking cuttings' for propagation will work, and I would...
I had a variety that had a similar problem with the tubers. There would be a gall in the area of the eye. Since it was a seedlng and I could not replace it, I...

Thanks so much for the help I was also thinking crown gall but I wanted to make sure I was not missing something. I have contacted the grower and she is...

Cory, Isn't it strange how one system can work so well for one person and not work at all for another. Several of my friends start theirs directly in pots of...

Yesterday was Whatcom County's tuber sale. We were very busy. Here is a picture of some of what was left after the big rush. It was a fun day getting to talk...
Great shots, we have similar sales, but not so showy the picture on the bag is of course an added attraction, and a boost to selling what's inside. Ken UK. ......
Do the growers get any of the money from the sale or dose it all go to the society. With the cost of things on this island it would be hard to get people to...
