You could make some hoops out of PVC pipe and add some shade cloth over your raised beds. I think they will snap back.

@@chrisjackson2345 the beds are healthier than the pots because they have more shade over the soil, the pots are crispy I need to figure out a plan for them and I’m trying not to mulch. Last year earwigs had a field day in the cedar mulch I used.

WRT potatoes, I go by the expectation of, at least 1 lb of potatoes per plant. To get more, fertility is the main issue. For indeterminate potatoes, more soil can help increase yield.

You are 100% correct. I was testing out using a pot (never again) last year we had an amazing in bed harvest 😊 next year I’ll do what I did last year.
