I would HIGHLY encourage you to view the videos from *"Back To Reality"* gardening channel. *Winter Harvesting Potatoes and Carrots... IN CANADA (-15C / 5F)* Back To Reality 241K subscribers ....their winter planting & harvesting experiments may completely change how you view harvesting & storing some of your root crops.....they may allow you to be even more lazy.

When to plant them in zone 6a? Thanks 👍🏼👍🏼

[@lisalee2885]

Take a big bag of good potting soil...put a few holes in bottom for drainage. Just put about 4 or 5 potatoes in and water. They will grow right in the bag...thats a small space too 👍

I plant seed potatoes in grow bags every year now. My grandsons harvest them and it’s like an Easter egg hunt. They love it! Thanks for another great video!

Nice. I did an experiment last year where I went even lazier. I placed cardboard on the ground, started setting potatoes down and covered with dirt and adding more dirt as the season progressed. It worked !

[@michelleharrell8452]

I live in the windy western desert of NV. I have some bags like plastic grocery bags I am no longer using as they are worn or the handles are off. Maybe I will try that. Thankyou for all the ideas.

[@allysonvollmer7223]

@@michelleharrell8452 As the plastic breaks down you may get microplastics in your soil. make sure you peel any root veggies so you dont eat the plastic!

I've had good luck with potatoes in grow bags which isn't a completely different concept. I wonder if you put hardware cloth on the bottom of the narrow bed you could grow potatoes without any danger of mole damage.

I really loved your interview with the MI Gardner. This is the first time I’ve ever commented on any site because I usually watch on TV but I had to get on my phone and say great job. I’m impressed with both of you.

I watch both channels. Love them both. In addition I watch epic gardening, Jacques in the garden , Huw Richard's and Charles Dowding Migardener which are not necessarily in my zone and some others a little,, but therea wealth of information that can be applied to other zones. I enjoy their wealth of knowledge and experience that I can learn from.

🥰❤❤❤ for Tuck! Thanks for guarding the garden and helping James with a fantastic and inspiring food forest!. I am waiting for my onion bed to finish so I can break it down and narrow it (from and 8' x 4' to 8' x 2'). Now I am thinking to cut the 4 foot board into thirds and reduce the width even further. Thanks James for showing your success with the potatoes with the "edge" planting. That gave me great insight!

I did my potatoes the usual hard way this year, maybe I'll do mine in a couple of these next year! Watching all of these good results from tighter plant spacing makes me want to try some of these techniques! I love the lush look of a space covered in green for several months! My furry friend of Tuck's is one of the reasons I have to put a fence around my asparagus bed!

Thats a super good way to keep animals out too. I think you can just use hay instead of soil. It looks clean and the plants are beautiful. Ive seen people do it in burlap sacks or laundry baskets. Definitely ideas. Thank you!

[@jeil5676]

I have a new bed with no soil that I'm gonna try Ruth stout method. I have some compost and a little bagged top soil to put on top and a ton of leaves from the fall to mulch with. It doesnt get a ton of sun but we'll see how it goes and I'll be building soil for next seasons crops. Did you cut the blooms off as they appeared on the plants?

[@kb2vca]

Great video. I have been planting seed potatoes in grow bags. No digging involved except to shovel in compost from my bins. Grow bags makes harvesting very easy, but I see that you were more or less able to pull all the potatoes up by the stems and leaves. Digging up potatoes with a spade or fork tends to result in damaging several.

[@mx.notyourbusiness8693]

Some more tips: The hilling technique only works with indeterminate varieties as they grow multiple layers but they take more time. Determinate vareties only grow 1 layer but they can be harvested quicker. Check your potatoes for what type they are. Also, you can let them grow longer than in the video, until the plants turn yellow / brown. The plants here were still very green. Stop watering them as soon as they start drying out or they might rot. Good luck!

Love Tuck!! He’s precious and a healthy eater.

[@JosieTube]

This year on my potatoes, I went full Ruth Stout method. I placed the potatoes on the dirt and covered them with about 8 to 10 inches of hay. 45 to 60 days later, I added another 4 to 6 inches of hay. That’s all I did. harvest was easy. I took a rake, pulled back all of the hay off of the potatoes. The new potatoes were resting on top of the soil. Approx 100-110 lbs the laziest way I’ve ever done.

[@palmtreeleebythesea]
