A new journey into homesteading "pic heavy"

That is a good neighbor! My bet is that he is a treasure trove of information that he would be glad to share.

All's well that ends well

Potato vines died back a little early. They had some potato bugs on them so maybe it was bacterial blight? Idk so i pulled them. Much better harvest than last year! These reds are so fast it makes me want to replant them and see if we can get a second harvest

Look at that! Love those little bitty ones for a crawfish boil!

 

[Britesea]

skin on with butter & parsley Gosh, they look tasty!

Yum! As fast as your grow you can probably do at least two harvests a year.

 

[Lazy Gardener]

Agreed, you might get 2 harvests. But, they don't like to be hot. Nice looking spuds. Mine are just now breaking ground.

sorry 2nd planting won't work, too hot already. Great harvest! I had so many one year that I dehydrated hash browns. I cut them on a mandolin, blanched, drained and dehydrated them. I put them in quart jars. It took 15 minutes to rehydrate them. They were good.

Agreed. The second planting should be in a fall garden. I dehydrate most of my potatoes. They go bad too fast otherwise here. I don't have a cellar (yet) or spot sufficiently cool yet to store things like potatoes.
