That will give them loose soil to grow freely. Once the plant is 6-12” out of the ground, mound dirt around them so the potatoes stay covered from sunlight. Expand That was one of my concerns was how deep/shallow to actually plant them and if they would push upwards over time and need to be covered with soil again. Thanks for the info! 2 1 Quote
toast21602 Posted July 27, 2020 Report Posted July 27, 2020 Our beets are coming in nicely this year. We planted a mix of Detroit Red and Golden. This is just about 5% of our total beet crop. Pumped to cook these tonight. 3 1 Quote

Kyle Posted September 9, 2020 Report Posted September 9, 2020 I’m house sitting for my parents this week and picked through their garden for them yesterday.... not a bad haul on jalepenos. This was halfway through, in total I think I picked around 120 jalepenos. 5 Quote
Kyle Posted September 9, 2020 Report Posted September 9, 2020 Most likely this tastes like crap due to the size, but somehow I missed this monster while picking the garden yesterday Quote
skiincy Posted September 15, 2020 Report Posted September 15, 2020 That's A LOT of potatoes, jalapenos, and a huge cucumber (?) Meanwhile in Philly, I've produced 4 small grape tomatoes and a carrot, which is about the size of a nickle. 2 1 1 Quote
