Planning on planting around 200 plants next year- we have already ate most of our canned potatoes!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07572122753133932669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3559352152168236450.post-50494937820584822692011-10-30T10:27:27.487-07:002011-10-30T10:27:27.487-07:00I might try this next year, as we have variable su...I might try this next year, as we have variable success with our potatoes, harvest size-wise. This year was terrible and I am sad that they are nearly used up now. We had so few and I'm not clear what went wrong aside from some watering mis-communications where they were stressed for a bit. I like saving space too, and we have the wire on hand. We are also planning to use this same wire as a layer over our leaves over our garlic (which we hope to plant very soon). The leaves provide a nice cozy blanket, and the wire laid over top keeps the leaves from blowing away, as well as critters away from the bulbs. I like the way you make your beds, they look lovely!! <br /><br />~Erin xoErinhttp://erin-awildandpreciouslife.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3559352152168236450.post-27960094197592698292011-10-28T13:22:12.619-07:002011-10-28T13:22:12.619-07:00Brillian way to grow taters.

Then I was allowed to boil them in a little pot. Those potatoes always tasted the best.
