We have been growing potatoes vertically for the last few years, and the GreenStalk vertical garden potatoes are one of the ways we love to do vertical gardening.
When you have limited gardening space, and you still want to grow fruits and vegetables that would otherwise take up more room than you have to allocate, vertical gardening, and specifically the GreenStalk vertical gardening system might be a good option for you.
This season we grew several varieties of potatoes in our GreenStalk, including: Growing purple magic molly potatoes, growing adirondack red potatoes, growing charlotte potatoes, and growing yellow finn potatoes.
I will tell you ahead of time, one of the varieties did not perform as well as the others, but, we still got a great overall hearvest, and we will continue growing potatoes vertically in the future as well.
Don't forget to check out the GreenStalk Coupon code listed above and below.
Thank you so much for watching this 2023 potato harvest video!

Never thought to use my Greenstalks for potatoes. It's funny because we gardeners will grow $20 worth of potatoes in a $150 container just to see if we can.🤣
They now sell potatoes grow stalks.
@@da1stamericus that’s hysterical
We grow fingerling potatoes in our Green Stalks. Because we are in our 70s it's easier to handle smaller veggies and fruits. Easier to cook and make different dishes without to much prep time which hurts our old hands. We enjoy your videos, thank you for sharing.
That is a great reasoning and now I am thinking forward to next season and thinking maybe we could continue our fingerlings in one of the GreenStalks. Thank you so much for the comment and for watching!
Don't get me started on the failures 😢
My potato season is basically done before it started. Planted in August(last month of winter), it came up beautiful and strong. Then, heatwave upon heatwave. Lost more than 3/4 of all my potatoes. I am very sad. But I am very happy you are beating last year's failures. I will live my harvesting fantasies through your videos. I'm impressed with these greenstalk gardens.
You can grow in 4 tiers instead of 5 and build 5 planters using 4 sets (just buy extra base and water reservoir). That’s what I’m doing because of concerns for wind and bc I am short.
Nice harvest my friend.
Confession time: I ordered two more GreenStalks yesterday (darn sales! ;-). But I did give a couple away recently.
I've noticed the bottom tier is sometimes dryer than the others. I usually just plant marigolds and nasturtiums down there.
This video popped up in my “for you” page and I’m so glad that it did!!!!! I’ve been eyeballing a Green Stalk for a while and this video solidified my intent to purchase one. I cannot wait to get mine and get started in one!!
I am so glad to hear it. There are so many vegetables that we have grown and are still growing in our greenstalks, both indoors and outdoors. I hope you enjoy yours too!
I grow potatoes of every color my most favorite way to eat mollies is to cut all the different color potatoes into little cubes mix them together and make potato hash for breakfast. The different colors and flavors make a wonderful side dish
That sounds beautiful, healthy, and delicious!
Maybe bottom tier can be peppers since they don't like "wet feet".
We thought the same thing! Thank you for the suggestion.
Quite a nice harvest in here at GreenStalk!
I love my GreenStalk… It’s such a help with my limited amount of space for growing ……
Nice variety of potatoes!
I have a green stalk and i can hardly wait to try this. Thank you

Love green stalks. We have 8 now. I see they have a sale going on. I just hit each tier with my hose its just as easy as full top basin watering. With the drought it was almost daily.
Well done loyal and faithful servant that harvested varieties potatoes 🥔 I ‘m growing purple stoke sweet potatoes this season. Thank you for tip about watering so plan them in November Happy Fall Day!
I like red potatoes!! I find them much easier to grow and they seem to be a prolific potato as well!! I hear you loud and clear about your struggle in growing and harvesting potatoes!! I too have had some quirky ones over the years!! Potatoes can be fickle too grow sometimes!!
Never thought of growing potatoes in my Greenstalk! I will definitely try that this summer!
Really enjoyed this video. I have 3 green stalks and never thought of growing potatoes in mine. Thank you for the inspiration. I am growing strawberries in mine. I may switch up now.
Just thinking...when planting the seed potato rather than planting in the middle of the pocket or near the edge of the pocket, I'm going to try planting the seed potato at the point the pocket meets the interior area and leave the pocket open with 4" or so on the pocket bottom. I'm thinking the shallow pocket will lure the new plant growth out into the pocket and then cover the plant green as it continues to grow till soil reaches the top of the pocket. The strategy is that the seed potato roots will have a larger area that would stimulate stolen along the stems. I don't hill my determinate potatoes but I think growing the potato plant at an angle out and upward may lead to more tubers... Share your thoughts.
Exciting.
So how many pounds of potatoes did you harvest out of there? I'm also curious how many pounds you harvest in an average year?
I've got potato plants sprouting that started after our rain we got. I know they won't have time to mature before frost though
Is there any way you could bring them inside without disturbing them too much (if you have some space and lighting?)
I'm going to try and transplant them indoors.
What soil do you use please? I've grown potatoes, but they are sometimes tiny. Do you fertilize as well?
We have two types of potting mix we have used for our potatoes. One is a homemade mix of peat moss, coco coir, worm castings, native soil, and perlite. The other is organic Miracle Grow potting mix that we have purchased on sale for very cheap at the ends of gardening seasons. This video has that second mix in it. We fertilize at time of planting with bone meal and an all purpose fertilizer and then fertilize twice throughout the gardening season.
Any idea how many lbs you ended up with? Just curious about how many in vs how many out. Thx!
Great question! I didn’t weigh in the bottom row because it failed, so out of 4 tiers, we got about 11.25 pounds, so not quite 3 pounds per tier but I would say maybe a 3 times investment on what we planted in those tiers.
I’m at the end of your video and just wondering the entire time why in the world you didn’t just flip each tier upside down instead of digging through each and every pocket 🤷🏻♀️
What is the math on growing potatoes in the green stalk? Seems like you spend more on dirt filling it than you get back in potatoes.
At the same point, if you don't have any space, it's the difference between having potatoes and not having any at all.
