Your son commenting in the video was great to include (think I even heard a slight southern accent! Loved the add on comment "we'll leave the stickers on"). Do some more of that when possible, its a winner! Saying a prayer for your property sale....
What part of North Florida are you in? We live in Live Oak and this is our second year gardening. My potatoes didn’t produce last year but are doing much better this year.
David, Have you ever tested IF... Nipping off Potato Blossoms increases yield or not? First time I've heard of considering doing this. I know some years, the plants do set fruit, but it is rare. Last year we had allot, this year it looks like only flowers... Peace, W
Tomato rocking this year. I had a small potato harvest from a 25 gallon. I don’t do the ground because of the stupid fire ants (they’re terrible here) but I do have an old wheelbarrow 🤔 might be a great spot to plant sweet potatoes
This was a fantastic video David! I enjoyed the slight divergence from some of your other videos. A bit more of stuff like this mixed into rotation will definitely bring more viewers. Keep it up!
I enjoyed seeing the kids .. they are hilarious wonder where they got that from .. lol.. wish your wife was in more videos .. thanks for sharing our fathers word through his creation
Awesome potatoes! Always the most fun vegetable to harvest My mom grew up on a village farm in Poland; potatoes, fodder beets and rye were how they fed most of the animals (and themselves, wasn't much to buy at the time), both chickens and pigs loooooove potatoes! Pretty awesome well-rounded food, I get why you rank survival foods on your blog in potatoes. I also bring it up because when I talked about needing to get chicken manure for my sunflowers and sorghum she mentioned that her father fertilised "the old village way", by soaking a few shovelfuls in a barrel with some compost and other junk, and then using the "interesting" smelling water on the plants. Dave's Fetid Swamp Water has its roots all over the world!
I do no till potatoes, they are better every year. I live in arid windy Montana , I’m 71, no weeding, water drip about 1/2 hour once a week, 50 lbs last year in a 20x4 foot bed. I have old hay stomped with old manure and cow urine. It’s better every year.
Mmmm, yes, potatoes are on my list to grow down here in central FL but there are some other things I need to take care of. I had a garden friend tell me that I’d regret planting Everglades tomatoes but I need a good weedy tomato that I can direct my kids to as I beat them back from my garden tomatoes.
That was a "Good" potato haul. Sure beats what my wife and I pulled up from our tater patch. Also, where can I get one of those t-shirts you are wearing?
Well done!!!! So nice to see everyone working together, God bless you all. But I am hoping that you did not toss the water that you cooked those potatoes in! lol...my family laughs as I run cooled veggie water to my garden or to the chicks...older folks called it pot liquor and drank it themselves, got the vitamins themselves. These are the good old days... too cool, another bene! emojis in our comments, who knew???
Curious if you tell the restaurant or market that they were grown with human urine? I don't think I could in good conscience give away or sell produce grown with that.
Hey! I just had some fried blue potatoes for lunch! Got impatient and snuck a handful a little bit early. My potato plants fruited this year! Pretty cool to see. I've never had that happen before. Can't wait till I have harvests that size. Man, that's gotta be a good feeling. Looks like you guys have a lot of fun together. 🙂
Nice. Potatoes are so easy to grow too. I usually grow 6 4x8' raised beds of potatoes. This year I am also doing potatoes in pots which are growing just as big as the ones in the beds. Off topic: just found a band I know you'll like. Check out Polyphia and their song Goat.
I hope my crop is as good. Complaining a little is normal, what is good is then to use that drive to change your situation and or mindset. As a pare t we sure can't wallow in our misery for long. ;) your kids are so fun. And glad you are reaching your local market. And I don't mind your non polished /PC comments as you don't hurt anyone in particular. Usually very fun. For example guessing weights. I weight double those potatoes and still am fit. Muscle and bones weigh so much, either my friends are lying to me or they have bird (hollow) bones. Dunno.
WOW!!! That was surely one HECK OF A BUMPER CROP of Potatoes David! Just think all the julienne potatos that would come out of there for making a yummy 'Sopa Juliana de Papa'?!! Or the amount of crispy fried, stuffed with potatoes and condimented with homemade red chili salsa?!! CONGRATULATIONS Sir on such a bountiful harvest, loved seeing the glimpses of The Good Children as well as the baby watermelon, baby squash and that hugemongus horse fly! Missed the livestream but here watching the replay oh and some nice chickens, hmm mostly Buff Orphingtons, Rhode Island Reds, Black Australorps, coupla white Leghorns and those brown chickens, thought for a second they were easter eggers but thinking they're wellsommers? You're crushing it Sir David The Good! :)
David ! Way to go with all of your spuds!! Nothing better, I have a question..?? do you live near a gun range or was the local VFW reenacting D-Day landings at Omaha Brach !! I could swear I heard automatic gunfire at one point?!?!
I kinda wish my husband WOULD complain to me. Then I'd know the things that weigh heavy on his heart so the burden didn't weigh so hard on his shoulders. And who knows, I might have a solution. It happens.
Ok, you've got some useful info some of the time but the religious stuff is getting too hsmfisted and on the sleeve. I'm unsubbing because of it. I realize you probably will wear that as as badge of honor, so I guess glad I could make your day better.

If you want to see how we planted these potatoes, watch this video from February: th-cam.com/video/6aAI32h3HaQ/w-d-xo.html
Missing you guys ok 👍.
Those are some cute chickens. Those potatoes will fatten those little lasses and make great eggs!
I want hashbrowns INSIDE my scrambled eggs.
I want hundrends of lbs of potatoes too!
Gosh this one made me laugh... love watching you guys
I knew you’d cave and post them chickies
That's awesome! An Attitude of Gratitude! What we think about, we bring about.
That's a lot of potatoes 🥔. Looking good 👍
Amen to God all glory to him :)
May your thumbs always be up!
David, are you composting the green spuds? I've been told that the green ones are also toxic to chickens.
So cute watching the chickens getting all excited when you gave them the potatoes.
Hey thats a sweet shirt!
Tractor Supply!
Just finished reading confessions of a homesteader love carol deppe. Awesome video with so much info u guys are too fun
I have a few potato plants making seeds this year! Going to try and start them....a new experiment for me!
That is fun.
Awesome harvest.
Over here in SC I also plant in the fall. There are always some taters with eyes growing that can be planted.
Your son commenting in the video was great to include (think I even heard a slight southern accent! Loved the add on comment "we'll leave the stickers on"). Do some more of that when possible, its a winner! Saying a prayer for your property sale....
Thank you, Jack.
David, 25 June, got an email saying you have a new book out, thought I'd just let you know marketing was doing its job!
What part of North Florida are you in? We live in Live Oak and this is our second year gardening. My potatoes didn’t produce last year but are doing much better this year.
We are northwest of Pensacola.
Holy mackerel that is a lot of potatoes! We hope to harvest in a couple weeks.
Stop splitting all that wood and get to diggn, diggn, diggn!
"...youl leave the stickers on them!..." -hahahahaah funny kids

Fun idea.
Try cooking potatoes in a sun oven to reduce energy costs.
That is a great idea.
Do you save any to re-plant next year? Or buy/acquire new seed potatoes every year?
Good question. I am going to try saving some. This is my first year with good potato success. They did not like the humid lowland tropics.
That drumming music in fountain scene was 🔥need about an hour of that on blast
Hello David The Good and Family nice potato 🥔🥔🥔🥔 Harvest 👌
Excellent! I love potato harvest days, always fun to start digging and see whats underneath.
How many potatoes did you put in the ground. To get that big of a return.
Good question. About 110lbs. If the soil wasn't so lousy, we should have had 800lbs or so back.
Ha! Great stuff here! Thanks for sharing.
Wow, you planted in January? What temperatures do you get that time of year?
Occasionally down into the 20s, but weeks between freezes
@@davidthegood Wow, I didn't know potatoes could handle temperatures that cold. I guess I'll be trying a new experiment this winter.
Last year, I could have had more potatoes using the seed potatoes. And thanks to the good Lord for His bounty for David the Good & family!
Awesome potato haul there David 😁
This was a fantastic video David! I enjoyed the slight divergence from some of your other videos. A bit more of stuff like this mixed into rotation will definitely bring more viewers. Keep it up!
David the good is future goals. And he's my spirit animal(guy) wish I had that big of space
No joke! One day Juan! One day!

A negative complaint would literally be constructive criticism. You are technically complaining but you're solving the complaint.
I was thinking of the negatives to photographs... so it would be the mirror “image” of the complaint... but I also like the way you thought about it 😉
Mmmm, yes, potatoes are on my list to grow down here in central FL but there are some other things I need to take care of. I had a garden friend tell me that I’d regret planting Everglades tomatoes but I need a good weedy tomato that I can direct my kids to as I beat them back from my garden tomatoes.
Regret growing a tomato that grow itself!? Never!
That was a "Good" potato haul. Sure beats what my wife and I pulled up from our tater patch. Also, where can I get one of those t-shirts you are wearing?

The water is good plant food.
That buzzing was annoying. some great spuds though.
Curious if you tell the restaurant or market that they were grown with human urine? I don't think I could in good conscience give away or sell produce grown with that.
Nice job at the gym can see some muscles on them pythons David!
(fist bump)
“I was flattering those potatoes.” 😂😂😂🤣🤣

Wow... they are very good.
JADAM JMS on my agenda. :) Thank you David. Don't for get to Dig! And dig. And dig, dig, dig. Do ya dig, dig, digidy dig dig dig... LOL 🐝🐝🐝✌️
Mmm potato soup
YES
Dude we all have problems. We don't need to hear yours to. Have a good day.

That's the way!
Do you ever leave some in the ground?
i would guess that its a pretty substantial amount
No, I don't. I need the space to plant other things.
You always leave one volunteer for next year
When did you plant your potatoes ?
Some at the end of January, most in the middle of February, a few at the very beginning of March.
12:38
The best potatoes I've had were from a farm in Baldwin Co
WOW!!! That was surely one HECK OF A BUMPER CROP of Potatoes David! Just think all the julienne potatos that would come out of there for making a yummy 'Sopa Juliana de Papa'?!!

From an Idaho boy, not a bad harvest of 'taters. Home grown, always the best.
David !
Way to go with all of your spuds!! Nothing better, I have a question..?? do you live near a gun range or was the local VFW reenacting D-Day landings at Omaha Brach !!
I could swear I heard automatic gunfire at one point?!?!
This is America out here, man.
Love It !!
Where is your tropical property located? Outside of the country
On the island of Grenada, West Indies.

Why cook the potatoes for the chickens??? Remember-> "More food, less work."
They dont seem to want the raw ones.
Who was the ghost/ zombie in the kitchen 🤔 🤯👻😱????
What? Where?

Yes. You know we get extra points if we are attacked, right? Anyhow, all the best.
