planting potatoes



22 pounds of Seed potatoes arrived in the mail last week. I cut them into sections that included 1 or more "eyes". They stay inside for 3 days to develop a seal over the new cuts and I got 250 pieces in the ground on Tuesday. If I get an average of 5 potatoes per plant, I should have a mixture of varieties of 1250 potatoes! This planting had some help from our 4 year old neighbor, Rivers.
