Tell me 25 "NEW" way's to plant POTATOS

**Sourdough** · 02-18-2008, 05:15 PM

1.) Take 5 old tires and drill 10 one inch holes around the tread. fill tire half full of dirt, and stick 10 potato eyes out the 10 holes, and fill with soil. now add another tire on top fill with soil and stick 10 potato eyes out. repeat till all five tire are stacked on top of each other, and 50 eyes are sticking out.

The sun hits the black tire, heats the soil, and wa'la a mess'o'tattes.

To harvest flip over one tire off the stack, collect tatters. and just keep flippin tires, no digging.

2.) your turn

*note to self* send more than one pygmie to "liberate" potatoes from WE's truck in case it's booby-trapped with attack rabbits....

ok but it's got really sharp teeth

**nell67** · 02-18-2008, 05:54 PM

LOL,guys thats hilarious!I actually had a rabbit that would attack you,she was good eatin

and no Trax,it wasn't THAT rabbit either,lol.

I have heard of but never tried,digging a tranch,placing the seed potatoes in the trench,cover it with straw,as the plant grows,cover it with more straw,until it blooms,then just let the plant die off and pull all the straw off them and pick up the potatoes.

Moving right along.....

WE - It's headslap Doh! You had it backwards.

Nell - I don't use imitation headslaps. Just the real thing.

Hopeak - 6 to 12 inches of straw or leaves that have been through the shredder. Just shove the little taterettes down into the bedding. If the material is loose then they will have all the air they need. Once it's time to harvest just reach inside the straw and viola! tater dudes.
