Two questions: where do you buy such a big bag of seed potatoes, and some of those potatoes had gray spots in them; are they ok to plant like that?
My Mothers family all live in Sweden and they grow a lot of potatoes to sell and raise sheep!Thanks for your videos, a lot of knowledge you have!
Thank you
Thank you
Great looking dirt in that garden!
Thank you
Thanks
Hello from Northwestern Saskatchewan Canada. Here are the best potatoes considered are the red Viking the purple Viking which are just really a red Viking with a different colour the Kennebec and of course the netted gym. Personally I find the Kennebec are very good for French frying they're not as starchy as the netted and the red Viking are very very good cooking potatoes
Hello from Florida.
Really nice piece of property you have there. Do you farm for a living or just your home stead?
Your earth looks like you have a lot of clay. What area of the country do you live in?
Just subscribed.
Thanks for the video.
I live in southeast Ga and i farm just for my homestead thanks for watching
Good job and thank you for sharing enjoyed it Be safe God Bless
Great video. Good info for these times.
I sliced the skin off red oot to make french fries, then planted the skins with an ey on it in to the ground. They are all growing great
Enjoyed your video. I’m in northwest Florida. For the past ten years or so, I’ve tried to plant my potatoes as close to Martin Luther King day as possible. Prior to that February 14th was always the day my parents planted potatoes. But I’ve found that earlier is better. Even in the years we’ve had late freezes, it only bites the plants off at the ground, and they come right back. I’m a firm believer in the mid January planting in my area.
I am growing a variety of potatoes in San Antonio. They had a bit of a rough start but are doing fine now. I just hilled them up and added a bit of cow manure. I'm growing them in grow bags. Thanks for the enjoyable video.
Had to watch your video again. Just love your sandy soil, I have clayish and its a pain. Planted mine 2 weeks ago finally. Will you make a update video on your potatoes?
I hoped to ask you a question and if you have a chance let me know? I planted a few red potatoes in growing stage, pretty green stem right off the side, took the stem off, kept the potatoes for dinner lol, I didn't hill, the stems are looking good, I'd covered a shorter on with dirt as a test for the next day after watering all and it peaked through the dirt, looking lovely....do I hill, or just water and let the red potatoes happen??
I would probably put a little dirt to them as the plant grows
Love those little red taters! They practically grow themselves! Is there a better all around potato?
That was awesome to watch. May your harvest be great!
Hello from Denmark. I have red potatoes in my garden. The variety is called Alouette. They are mold resistant. The Danes don't want red potatoes. We have several mold-resistant potatoes in Denmark. I have one that looks like the King Edward potato but it is called Carolus and is also mold resistant. Spraying is not necessary
I think these are Pontiac
Can they be ship to the USA
We grow potatoes in Jos, Plateau state Nigeria because the weather there is cold. At the moment, I live in Abuja the capital of Nigeria and I would love to grow it in here. The temprature of Abuja is humid. Can potatoes thrive?
Enjoyed the video! Just starting out small family farm in Northwest TN! On the road to being self sufficient at least in food!
No one still will tell me how long it should take a seed potato to come up in Alabama
Around 10 days
When can we plant Irish. Which month and for how long
I have planted theses potatoes from the end of January until the first of march
This is my first year planting potatoes,I hope l do it right .Thanks for the tip.

What zone are you in? I has a hard time growing in zone 6
I am in southeast georgia
Thanks for replying. I'm in Missouri
Are you going to show your harvest? 😊
It was great watching you plant the potatoes. I have always heard to make sure to eyes up. Then I see the small planter that drops the potatoes in the row. The eyes cannot all up. How do you dig your potatoes? Looks good to me!
by hand with a potato rake or hoe
Thanks
Nice! That's gonna be a lot of taters!
Where are you located?
Southeast Georgia
You've got me ready to plant mine😏
Gotta look at your channel and see if we get to see the end results😊
I got sick last year i am making a new video for this year and i will show the harvest thanks
Red potatoes are NOT (or have ever been from) -Ireland
Thanks for the info and for watching
All the best to you. I did 2 60' rows. Do you have row hippers for your tractor?
No I need to get some
Can you tell me… what is a seed potato? And where did you buy them
It is a potato- you can get them in very small quantities at some Walmart stores , I got mine at the local feed store Ace Hardware
How and how often do you water them?
It is according how dry your ground is , mine has been rained on once and the are just now up and i will water them once a week unless it rains on them , because all i have planted at this time is potatoes i water them with a water hose ad spray nozzle , once i get more vegetables planted i will use a sprinkler
👌
Where are you at to be planting this early?
South Georgia
@@50acrehomestead wow, I'm in central Louisiana. Too wet and cold. Last year had heavy frost for 4 days the 1st week of March.
@@KrazyKajun602 we have late frost here sometimes , if the water sprinkles don’t save the potato plants they will come back
I don't like Irish potatoes, I love Swedish potatoes.
sound?
Yeah, the background music is kinda annoying
