I've been planting potatoes for decades. I learned from my grandfather and father. My grandfather cut up his potatoes after they have sprouted and leaves very little of the core of the potato sometimes not much more than an eight inch thick. One added process was to generously powder the cuttings with ashes from the fireplace for wood stove. The ashes are like adding "potash" with protects the cuttings and helps them from rotting AND is also good as a fertilizer very useful for root crops.

I plant buckwheat inbetween my potatoes, which will connect to the mycorhizal fungi quickly, and then I cut it at ground level early summer before the potatoes take over the bed. I use the same technique using broad beans. No fertilizer needed; the rotting roots of the cut off plants are the fertilizer.

@@lukejones1244 It does feel a bit risky alright. I know I can safely plant dwarf beans with my tomatoes. It may sound bizarre, but both the bean and tomato plants seem so much stronger and healthier for growing together. I must say, I am struggling to believe they are benefiting each other that much... could it really be that simple? But I swear the same beans that are growing by themselves, and the tomato plants from previous years were nowhere near as juicy and strong. It may be the companion planting or something else causing it, but I'll definitely keep doing what I'm doing! ;)

Great video! Here are my recommendations: 1) Dig the potato holes not opposite but following a zig zag pattern. Each hole not too close to the bed border. The goal is to provide more soil volume per plant. You will get higher yield per plant. 2) Apply lactic acid metabolism bacteria to increase overall crop performance. Yields may double in some crops. God bless you both.

My dad loves growing potatoes like, Desiree, French Fingerling, Yukon Gold, Kennebec, etc. He gardens in a zone 3a (I think similar to you) and always has great yields. A few evangelizing Jehovah's Witnesses from Idaho came to the door once and they were visibly shocked by how big and healthy Dad's potato plants were. Biggest compliment anyone could have paid my dad.

Hilling potatoes is determined by whether they're determinate or indeterminate potatoes. Determinate are short season growers and only grow in one layer so don't need to be hilled. Some of the varieties are Red Pontiac, Chieftan and Yukon Gold.

This was several inches deep and lightly dug into the surface of some reasonable clay soil. They produced a good crop but the scrub turkeys ate them instead of me. We have several varieties of feathered terrorists. I will be following your method and adding some crop protection next season. You are very inspiring, thank you.

Growing Potatoes here in Scotland - I put two in a open heavy duty black plastic bag, quarter full of compost, once the they start spouting I add more soil, do this every so often till the bag is full, this way the soil is loose through out it's growing, thus producing more yield - Enjoy the whole new tubers!

Loved the loon! Loved my time in AK (Healy), but this New Mexico boy just needed the sun too much. Thanks for your channel.

Thanks for another lovely video! I had no idea I’d be so interested in gardening in Alaska. I love all the information that you share. Such a contrast to the growing conditions where I live. 😁 looking forward to watching the progress over the next few months! 😊😊😊

We have always reduced larger tubers by cutting them and have had no problems. One thing we do though is to dust the cut faces of the tubers with powdered garden sulfur as we cut up the potatoes to help ward off disease.

I learned about smashed fried potatoes from you in an earlier video. My favorite way to fry potatoes now. Thanks

I keep all my little tiny potatoes to plant the next year. My basement was a little warmer than usual last year and when i opened my basement this spring, the taters has grown eyes that were 4 feet long. Obviously all their energy was spent just growing eyes so I chucked them in the compost pile and just bought a bag from the grocery to plant.
