Hon, they were mmm, mmm good! And that was from hubby who is not really demonstrative. lol I just harvested more from this years/late last year planting. Did one video on the first few I got out and need to upload the one from Friday.

Don't see why not. Try it and see.

Thanks for posting! This is really encouraging. We grow many other things, but the husband has been hesitant about potatoes. I am definitely going to try it this spring!

Glad I could help. I'm going to try them again also in November. The ones I planted in June petered out in August. I guess it's just too hot here in the summer and we did not get much rain.

We had little rain here as well. My cukes died out on me, peppers did not do well at all either.

Great advise it will make the videos easier to find and give you more views. I didn't know it took potatoes that long to grow. I got a bag in the kitchen I didn't use guess I'll try sprouting them.

Put them in a dark place and they will sprout.

I did not set out to grow potatoes. I was starting a new bed and had used potato peels that had sprouts on them as one of my layers. I used to pull the vines as they came up. I got to thinking one day, mmm I wonder will potatoes grow from these.

The ones I'm growing now are from potatoes I've left whole that had a sprout on it.

I'm no expert, I just love to learn and share what I've learned especially if it helps someone.

I welcome the suggestion. I'm really bad when it comes to expressing myself. When uploading I draw a complete blank in trying to come up with tags for the videos.

It took 4-6months. I've looked up the info for the sweet potato that I planted it says 6 months. I just hope I can get them through the summer.

Thanks for the encouragement.
