Growing potatoes - some observations

14 years ago

I grew Yukon Gold, Norland Red, and a blue potato this year. They all did well, but the golds seem to grow the biggest. I left some in the soil too long and they started to rot. The reds seem to be content to stay in the soil. The blues are still maturing.
