Planting potatoes. Wishing Well #1. 3.7.14 |
Here is today's potato harvest, from wishing well #1 and #2. I already harvested wishing well #3 maybe a month ago, and one more remains.
Pretty good yield. I wondered if I could do better. One is a mix of red and white, the other is all red.
I'm happy with the yield, and quality. A few small ones might be good for next year's seed potatoes, or I could buy new ones.
The wishing wells tended to dry out on hot days. They might do better if I paint the outside white, or add reflective material, or have deeper soil. I think the deeper soil will be a good start.
