Very well made video. Aren't potatoes amazing? They grow in anything and you don't need seed potatoes either. I love potato reveals and this was a damn good one.

I was really surprised how well just one eye grew. I got more from that eye than some of my seed potatoes lol. Thanks for watching. Hope all is well.

Good to actually see the results and the actual potato is the water and nutrient storage so you replicated this by potting up and looking after it, well done . 🥕Happy Gardening........🍅Terry King 🍎

Cheers Terry. I've had better results from this eye than from proper seed potatoes lol. I was thinking of doing a potato eye competition next year :-)

Hi Joyce ... just a FYI I watched your paper bag video and today I made several of them to put the excess chillis in to take around some friends houses. They were mighty impressed with my bags of chillis and my environmentally friendly credentials have gone through the roof 😂😂😂 So thank you for that 😊

Oh wow! I had no idea and you got a nice return of potatoes. I like how you put the other potatoes near the eyes to encourage them to grow. Lol! Great video!

I was really surprised at the result :) That one eye gave us more potatoes than some of the proper seed potatoes lol. I might just buy 2 potatoes next year, let the chits develop and just grow from them lol. Hope all is well with you and your loved ones MsStoneHome. :)

I think you can do the same thing with garlic but a head or two and it can give forever.

Once I saw the plant I knew you would get spuds. I cut thin slices of potatoes with a chit and always get great potatoes. My first video was on starting them. HGV was impressed by the how many pounds I got on my first potato skin reveal. This was a great experiment.

Great video, I love spuds. I watch a KZbinr who once had a health scare and was told to take it easy. He did to an extent, but he got busted as his Doctor was also a follower of his channel so he got busted! LOL You never know who is watching so really take it easy. Bet you feel like a kid on a long journey, "Are we there yet?". Please take care, best wishes, Poo
