 Hi, thanks for checking out our video on growing potatoes. So we got a couple different varieties of potatoes and started them ahead of time by putting them in boxes and milk crates so that they could grow and chit or they could start their little sprouts. You can get more potatoes out of them by cutting them in half or even in quarters if they're big enough as long as you leave two eyes or sprouts on each piece and let the skin harden over for one or two days before you put them in the ground. So I put them in cool windows so that little sprouts would start. Then I went and I dug rows. I went about six to eight inches deep and turned over the sod. I leave the sod sitting on top, it'll kill the other grass and I dig all the way down and then I clean out the bottom of the trench. Then what I'm going to do is I'm going to spread about, oh, three pounds of manure per ten feet. It wasn't real exact but I'm spreading it out with a scoop here that's well composted manure. I spread that through each one of the trenches. Then what I do is I'm going to take the box with the potato sprouts in it, the spuds, and I am going to do this old Irish thing I saw on an old video on YouTube basically to space them out. I put my one foot in front of the other and I put a spud in front of each toe and then I step and then put a spud and step and put a spud. That spaces them out at about 12 to 16 inches. I'm then going to spread a little more manure on top and then I'm going to come along with my rake and break up the clods in the mounds and scrape about six inches of soil onto the spuds. This covers them loosely and still leaves me plenty of soil that I'm going to be able to mound up on top of the spuds once they've sprouted. Stay tuned for later videos on how they're growing.
