Nine year old said he wanted to grow some potatoes, so we planted chitted seed potatoes in bags tonight.

He said he didn’t know it was so much work!

@david Tried this with bags last year for the first time. It worked well.

@morph Any tips? It must be six or seven years since I last tried.

@david Nothing special. I was concerned about watering too much because I thought the potatoes would rot more easy in those bags. But it turned out that that the soil was not wet and they could've needed more water. So a lot of potatoes stayed small.

@morph it’s definitely a balancing act to get everything right. I don’t remember making much effort last time and it was a disappointing crop. Hopefully my kids will help!
