growing potatoes from potatoes
    #21444160 -

Hello. So I eat potatoes pretty regularly. Damn near every morning for breakfast. Anyway, a few months ago I noticed that two had roots coming out of them. I thought well lets see just how far this goes. Anyway they now have these large little clusters growing out of them with what looks like leaves on the tips and more little root tips toward the base of these clumps. I'd like to try and utilize these for an experimental grow. Yet should I go about it? Just pop it in the soil with the leaf tips sticking out? Is it that simple lf do I have to do anything special?

Thanks guys :smile:

jus do what this guy does.


I dont really grow potatoes since theyre so cheap. If your not gunna use all organic ferilizers n shit then its not worth the effort to grow them yourself at all. Even tho it takes like no effort.

Can't seem to pull it up. I guess my shitty internet device doesn't pick up that kind of thing. And I don't have a computer anymore. Though could you describe the process a little or maybe just post a link in text only? and the next time I make it to a computer ill peep it out.

Irishman here: When your spuds get old they'll sprout, throw them in some soil and they'll take hold. Use a big container, loose soil to let em expand, and cover the emerging leaves with soil to promote root development.

It's really easy to do but you need good space or very good technique to get decent harvests. My manager managed to stockpile spuds for his whole family from 3 raised beds though.

Raised bed, huge pot or maybe even a big sack would do.

I hear they grow best in large fabric pots, maturing every 10 weeks or so

I wish I could post photos but atm i can not :frown: but anyway my two spuds rooted and are looking great. They actually one of the best plants in my garden. I read the same as posted above that you wanna keep the soil up to right under the leaf tips and keep building it up as t grows. So anyway I tried to do that and am now out of room. I am growing them in a little yet tall garbage can. I put more and more soil of in about two or three times and now is filled to the top :tongue: So next time ill have a much taller container and start it very low. But man when potatoes start growing they really take off! It's very easy to grow and doesn't seem to need a lot of nutrients becausenits so healthy looking in such a crap soil. Hope  I get afew spuds :super:

Thx for all the replies :smile:
