  • Learn the signs that your little spuds are ready to be pulled up. I've got potato plants at different stages of maturity, so you can see the difference between a plant that needs a couple more weeks and a plant that's ready to be harvested.

    Neat, neat, neat. I love a plant that tells me 'pick me' so clearly lol. This is my 1st year experimenting with potatoes, and they are amazing! Basically, right when I gave up on them was when those leaves poked thru and took off! Maybe I'll get another bucket and soil next month and start a new batch for fall!

    Thank you for the video. I have taken up gardening again. This is the first year since the 1990s. This is the first time for me growing potatoes. So this was very informative. What type of purple potatoes are you growing there? I noticed that there are several different types online. God bless you and your family. Duane.

      Yellowing leaves are also a sign for sweet potatoes, but you'll harvest a little differently. Here's more info: www.gardenary.com/blog/how-to-grow-sweet-potatoes-in-an-organic-kitchen-garden

    First time gardener here. Some things I know, but for the most part - I'm learning a tremendous amount as I go, so..... I have a question that I keep asking, & have even resorted to doing searches on, but I canNOT get a straight answer. Could you please answer this question that I have?
    I know that when you plant potatoes, you have to keep adding dirt to the tops {mounding} of them. What I do NOT know, however, is WHEN do you STOP adding that dirt? I sure hope you can answer this for me once, & for all. I would so appreciate it.
    Thank you!!!

    • @Gardenary
      @Gardenary  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I would hill compost around them a couple times and definitely anytime you see a little tuber poking up. Then just let them do their thing. Make sure to stop watering when the leaves turn yellow in anticipation of harvesting.

    Have u ever tried growing potatoes in wood chips?
    It works great and i top off more chips like at a month then 2 or 3 weeks after that. Its crazy how many potatoes grow. And digging them up is so easy. I use hands. The woodchips break down and u and more. And it creates and great environment to grow. I planted sweet potatoes and 3 tomatoe plants in chips this year. I have so many vines with the sweets i think they could be doing good. The tomatoe plants r doing pretty good. And 1 is doing great.
    Next year i think im going to plant 80 percent of everything in chips. I get them from my city for free. They give citizens as much as u can come get. They chip up dead trees or damaged trees. Also this isnt my idea. A man from England. Hes a Muslim man. Does this for years and i follow what he says in his videos. Sorry cant remember his name.

      It depends on where you live! If you're in a warm climate like Texas, you've got time. You might do early varieties or ones that don't need 100+ days to grow

    And you made a video on that, you must think very little of people who grow their own, You can start lifting or robbing them as we pro's say as soon as they flower and if you wait for the leaves nearest the ground to start turning yellow then there is plenty there to pick. Jesus what a waist of your time try to tell people that.
