Potatoes!


One of our test veggies this year is potatoes. We have never grown them and do not really know how. We have been collecting a whole pile of various types over the last month or so, just the ones we can buy in the grocery store. Will they work? Do you have to buy the tubers from the garden center? Either way, we are going to try them. We cut up a few red, white, all-purpose, and russett. We planted them probably too close together in three mounded rows. We shall see what comes of them. I need to do a bit more research and then I think we will plant a couple more rows in the new plot. You cannot have too many potatoes.
