I live in central Florida where I grow all sorts of stuff in 5 gallon buckets on top of 16" concrete pads to keep the nematodes away. I put the seed potatoes in cardboard boxes on the floor of my house until the sprouts are about an inch long then I plant them. They all sprout. The buckets make harvesting easier because I just tip the buckets over into a plastic basin and sort out the potatoes. My yields have been poor bacause I have been over watering 3 times a week until water comes out the bottom of the bucket, and i only fertilized at planting time. This year I will follow your advice and water once a week and fertilize every 4 weeks, I will let you know how this works out.

I have never cut them up. In our heat and always a chance of rain, always use whole potatoes. And you don't necessarily have to have sprouts. It just takes a bit longer for them to come up. Not all potatoes produce flowers, while some of the same varieties do, some don't. Flowers on potatoes don't really mean anything. These are just some things I learned. Hope this helps.,

Patrina, you've absolutely got to try elephant garlic. I tried planting in November of last year and still am waiting probably another month before I pull them. I planted approximately 20 and tribed one just yesterday. the head was underdeveloped but still approximately a half a pound! works great in our warm weather. Your pal in Middleburg.

I have had zero success when I cut my taters before planting. I use grow bags, and they rot even in them. Using the whole potato is much better. I still get a small harvest, but I think it is because they need more fertilizer and water. I also usually end up planting a few grocery store potatoes that had sprouted, (not particularly worried that it is too late and hot) and even though they don't produce much, there is usually something. I did not plant this spring, as I couldn't find seed taters locally, and the online ones were a bit pricey for me. Growing in zone 8b.

Just ordered those Russet potatoes from that supplier you mentioned. I want to plant them in grow bags and see what happens. Grow bags should prevent them being waterlogged if it rains too much. I live on Treasure Coast, zone 10a. Question is: if I cut them will I get more potatoes vs planting them whole?

In theory, yes. But I tested this last fall and my cut potatoes rotted in the ground because of all the rain. I would encourage you to plant them whole.

You are, likely, right about the potatoes: between the rain and the potatoes having been cut, they probably rotted. Cutting potatoes makes sense in Nebraska (not much rain there, in summer). Florida, however,... On the plus side, the rain is responsible for much of the beauty of Florida.

WoooHooo! Those are Great Garlic! And who said garlic can't be grown in Central Florida?!!! Well earned kudos to you! And great potatoes, too. Thanks for keeping it real, and demonstrating how to bounce back; to turn every gardening mishap into not just a learning opportunity, but some kind of harvest as well. Florida gardeners never fail; unless we quit and fail to replant. I don't want to dehydrate onions or garlic because the smell would just linger....do you put your dehydrator in the lanai?

Your harvesting garlic already? I’m in Deltona zone 9b and I planted my garlics at the beginning of November and they still aren’t ready. The bulbs r so big but the stem is super thick and it still has a lot of green leaves. Most only have about three dead leaves. I learned that when 5 or six dead leaves appear then they r ready, but I’m not sure how long that will take because I cant feel the cloves on my bulbs. I’m just hoping I dont leave them too long like last year. I got about 8 lbs and had some huge bulbs almost the size of my palm and Theyre not elephant garlic.

Growing mostly in the greenstalk and grow bags as I build my i ground garden out but will always use grow bags for taters as the bags will not hold water. I alway get several pounds per bag with 4 pieces. How about a test this fall with some cut taters in bags and see how it goes? Nice job on the garlic! Maybe I’ll give it a whirl this fall. Not sure if it gets cold enough here though.

This is super helpful for someone who wants to try garlic for the first time. Question though, can I buy the seed garlic earlier and refrigerate longer, then plant in November? Or is it bad to vernalize too long? Also, I should add that I’m going to try both garlic and potatoes in large containers, and hope that will be ok. I haven’t got to the point where I’m ready for a raised bed yet, still a newbie!
@HomegrownFloridaZ9a
@HomegrownFloridaZ9a Год назад
Containers are great for potatoes, and I would assume for garlic as well! You can vernalize them longer, but there is a limit before the garlic starts to degrade in the refrigerator. I probably wouldn’t do much longer than 12 weeks. And definitely no shorter than six weeks. Good luck!

So I've never grown vegetables. I decided to try sweet potatoes because of how my brother in law said how well they do here. We live in Florida too. I didn't do any prep. I just decided to keep them whole from the store lol. And threw them in the dirt hole area recently I've made for them. How do you know when they start growing?
@HomegrownFloridaZ9a
@HomegrownFloridaZ9a Год назад
Sweet potatoes are actually a different plant from regular potatoes so they grow from the slips rather than the whole potato. Although, it should still work to some extent the way you did it. Sweet potatoes take 4-5 months before they are ready. Are they producing lots of vines?

Wow great garlic and potato harvest! I grew potatoes and garlic this year too. My potatoes harvest was poor but my garlic harvest was pretty good. I planted Inchellium Red and loose Garlic from Publix. I have grown Red Toch in previous years and had very good results with it but it is more difficult to find. I have tried saving garlic seeds from my own harvest to grow but I had the same experience as you. I think is the Florida weather. Inchellium is definitely a keeper for me too. I will be growing it this fall and will try the Red Toch and maybe one other variety too. Did you vernalized the garlic? If so, for how long?

Why don't you use your own potatoes for seed potatoes? Seed potatoes are one of the biggest scams I've seen. When I first time grew potatoes in FL, I used Publix potatoes that I prepped in the fridge and planted in big containers. They sprouted in a week. You pay WAY more for seed potatoes. And they are no different.
