Gardening: Edible Plants : How to Grow Potatoes in a Garbage Can

[trickrocket]

SHOW cutting holes in the bottom (and you can't use a hammer and nail--it will just crack)! SHOW the drainage material! SHOW cutting up a potato into pieces! SHOW what you're talking about!!!

Yes, you can keep adding layers of eyes, then compost, until you're almost all the way to the top (final layer 3-4" of soil), which will hugely increase your yield.

No, you can't do this indoors unless you use grow lights.

thanks but can u make a video on harvesting video i have never seen you harvesting

[DanOManno]

Good video. Also, I think you need to use seed potatoes, not store bought which have been treated with a retardent.

She doesn't explain that you have to keep adding compost to cover them as they grow

[MoBunshin]

I was wondering about that. I heard that's the best way, but I'll try both of these methods and see which of them work better.

What other vegetables last a long time? Also, what is the best way to store potatoes?

[swebbo]
