I had a friend years ago that was allergic to many things, her worst allergies were to any and all petroleum products, including fertilizer, and to all members of the grass family. She grew most of her own vegetables, of course all organic. She prepared her potato bed by sprinkling bone meal and blood meal on the ground, then covered it with about 2 inches of dry leaves, then put the potatoes where she wanted them and covered them with 12 inches of loose straw. When the potatoes had 3-5 leaves above the straw, she covered them with another 12 inches of straw. She did this ‘layering’ until the bed was about 5 feet high(every time she put straw on, of course the rain, and watering them, packed it down) when ready to harvest, she literally peeled back a layer of straw and picked up the cleanest, most perfect potatoes I have ever seen. Beautiful red skinned potatoes that tasted wonderful! Every layer of straw removed revealed another layer of potatoes! From a 4’X 10’ patch, she got enough potatoes for a family of 6 for a year! She gave me some, and several other neighbors too. She was a good friend, RIP Leonie.

@lalystar42303 жыл бұрын
honestly, you still could. but it's never really necessary unless you're trying to maximise your yield. The way I do it is I just plant a bunch and whenever I need potatoes, I'll dig up whatever I need, while letting the plant just sit there and do it's thing and whenever a plant starts yellowing, I'll just pull up that plant and harvest it... xD But that is mid season, if I'm going to use the potatoes very soon. If I'm going to store them long term (for use during the winter and into spring). I'll cut back the plant, let the spuds sit for a couple days and only then harvest them. then let them sit out in the open for a day before bringing them in. It's what I've been taught the potatoes need to toughen up their skin so they store better. not sure if it's true, but I do it anyways :P
@jessicamiller75393 жыл бұрын
Kevin it's so true about potatoes being easy to grow. I tried last season with some 'overrripe' potatoes leftover from my Aldi shop. Threw them in a round 60cm plastic pot filled with bagged compost and bagged, rotted manure. Mulched with sugar cane mulch. Irrigated for a spell, then turned irrigation off for ages as we had an unseasonably rainy summer. Went to empty out the pot a few weeks ago cos I wanted to move it and though it would just be filled with failed potatoes and spent growing soil. Nope! Got like 30 potatoes out of that bad boy. Can't wait to scale up next season! From Zone 9b in Australia.

These are my favorite kind of garden vidoes. Start to finish. Amazing! Can't wait to try smashed taties.... 😆

I planted my potatoes about a month ago and noticed the first sprouts out of the ground yesterday! it’s the first of the season in my new garden. Good to know that the eyes don’t need to be super developed bc I did plant some potato’s that the eyes weren’t fully sprouted as an experiment. Excited to try my home grown potato’s
