Nancy have you tried planting potatoes in old tires? just keep raising it
up with more soil and another tire as you go along, or so I’m told. Worth a
try and a good use for the tires, plus they generate heat being black and
in the sun, so am thinking would need good watering.
put them in a brown paper beg in a warm place until the eyes grow more
that soil looks increadably rich…..lucky you.
Love this idea ! We planted 2 small gardens in our yard last week (well,
Julian & the boys did).I can’t wait until my sunflowers bloom ! We planted
sunflowers, corn, tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, melons & spearmint. Julian
watched this video with me. We’re planting taters in buckets, next week !
🙂
Clean garbage cans and enough soil to make heavy, then use straw and soil.
The harvested taters will be clean too.
potatoes sold in grocery stores for food are generally treated so they do
not sprout; sometimes they do, and grow; sometimes they sprout and fizzle;
sometimes they will make potatoes (but generally fewer) than seed potatoes.
LOVE YOUR FLOOR SPIGOT! 😉 I’m planting my potatoes this year in
bottomless bins placed on top of the dirt: start the potatoes in the dirt,
then, as the vine grows, fill the bin with straw, leaf much, etc. the spuds
grow big and clean, and can be stored in place.
I can’t promise the results, this is just an experiment on my part! The
bigger the container, the better, though! Good luck!
Nancy- you’re crazy-and I LOVE LOVE LOVE you
Your pots where to small, smaller pots dry out quicker and overheat and
cook the roots. I have 2 manure baskets half bury in the ground I grow
potatoes in. Works great! You could have bury that rubber-made container
and it shall had worked. I grow potatoes so I can have a few new potatoes
then cook with fresh green beans Yum!
If I’m going to bury the pots, then I may as well have planted them in the
ground.
i did see someone on here that grew them in pots. pioneerliving? something
like that . i am growing some radish in window box pots , i put them in the
sun and bring them in before the sun goes down. it warms them up. they may
grow even in winter?
I’m done with planting in pots! Nowhere near as easy as putting them in the
ground! I didn’t know you had to water them all the time! Never again!
If it works, fantastic; if it doesn’t, it didn’t cost you anything to try!

@GrenadeChick99 It didn’t work last year. Willem’s trying it again this
year, though.
