Potatoes 2019

brownrexx · March 8, 2019

I always grow more potatoes than we can eat but I get into the store and I want to try everything. This year I was only going to buy the Kennebec and I ended up adding the Lehigh Yellow but at least I stopped at 2 varieties.

They don't sell them by the pound, it's either 5 or 10 lbs in a bag except for fingerlings which are in a small mesh bag which I think is 1 lb.

If I could buy them by the pound I would probably try more varieties and plant one of these and one of those.

I love red potatoes but they never do well for me. They develop a lot of ugly scab.
