Potato Daze

Every single year it is a total miracle to me.  I plant one potato, add sun, water, and soil, and I get 3 or 4 or more potatoes! (The hand shovel is there so you can get an idea of size.)


Here's my haul for this year.  I planted 12 red potatoes.  I harvested 61 reasonable sized reds and 16 more the size of my fingernails!  I planted ZERO white potatoes.  I had 5 volunteer plants emerge and produce 23 potatoes. If that's not magic, what is?

    I don't know why plants that grow food underground should be any more magic than veggies and berries growing above ground. But they really are! I am glad to see you got such a good harvest this year!
