I didn't know you still had until tomorrow. Have you ever planted them in tubs? We most certainly do not have humidity to worry about, I just might have to get a few seed potatoes and give it a whirl. <br />My friend used to pick every last potato bug off of her plants and put them in a bucket for her chickens to eat. Now that's dedication. Or just too much time, one... ha!LeAnnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10360378882035668129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9026289810505019932.post-52404804457331925072011-04-21T16:44:52.412-05:002011-04-21T16:44:52.412-05:00Carrie - Sure I will post about harvesting them
J...Carrie - Sure I will post about harvesting them<br /><br />Jennifer - No each plant will give 5-10 tatters all some small ones and some big ones. They do like a looser soil, but if you can get some waste from where haybales are fed and mix that in with the soil it does a world of good for helping with that. Our soil can be a little hard and thats what I did and it's great now!Janet Phillipshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14312866682687248984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9026289810505019932.post-67432138337438942402011-04-21T14:23:52.821-05:002011-04-21T14:23:52.821-05:00Does each potato you plant yield one potato?

I'll keep an eye on them. Thanks for this post! I'm really excited to harvest my own taters. <br /><br />Question: When you get ready to harvest them can you do another post then? Please!!! ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
