We planted the potatoes today. A bit late for our area but sometimes life gets in the way. We haven't grown potatoes for several years and I am not sure why I have such an urge to grow them this year. Unless its just the novelty of growing blue potatoes.
Potatoes are one of the easiest crops to grow. Turn the dirt over, amend it if necessary and dig a trench. Place potatoes in the trench "eyes up" and cover with straw. As the plants grow, add more straw as necessary to keep them covered. Once the tops die, pull back the straw and harvest.
