I found these red potatoes in a cabinet, too sprouted and wrinkly for good potato salad. I decided to plant them in one of the fabric containers. They might be ready by mig June, and then bush beans can go into that container.
Many years ago I used the container method and it was so-so. This time I'll give the, more room and fertilizer.
They are covered with a few inches of soil. As they grow, more soil is added until they reach the top. They should be watered and fertilized until the stems start to dry. I figure, if each potato makes five good potatoes, that will me thirty, which is no small potatoes LOL. Unless they actually are small potatoes.
