Does anyone here grow russets? 12 days ago, after reading a website, I
planted russets in 6 inches of soil in a garbage can (new) with drain holes
in the bottom and a layer of stones. I planted 6 potatoes from my pantry
that had sprouted and two have come through the soil, lovely and green.
When they are 6 inches tall, they say to add another three inches of soil
and repeat until they flower and the tops dry up. Then harvest. It was
meant to be an experiment, not a cost cutting method since I've spent just
under 20. cdn. I'm curious to know if anyone else has tried it....Sharon in
