Sprouting Seed Potatoes

10 years ago

This is only my second year planting potatoes.

My seed potatoes are already sprouting.
I think it is too early.
Do I put them back in the fridge???
I am afraid to plant them this early.

I am planting half in containers and half directly in the ground.
Would it be OK to plant some of them?

Help!

May be late information, but according to the U of M Extension, you can plant potatoes anywhere from April 15th to June 1st. Of course, everything is late this year. The garden store I go to didn't even get potatoes until recently. I planted mine two days ago. See attached link for more.
