Good for the wipes and I’ll be interested to know how the one pot inside another one for those potatoes work for you to compare it with mine. You are the potato expert and I certainly am not.

“Fortunately, I have plenty of pots and soil on hand.”

I had ZERO pots when I started last year. I also didn’t even have one bucket to carry soil or anything else in.

Ha! I’m no expert on potatoes. Last year was the first time I actually grew those. Reason being I started growing the stuff that was more expensive first, and rarely on sale around here.

For example Spinach. Three bucks or more per bag, and you have to worry about contamination and pesticides. Forget it. Spinach is too darn easy to grow to pay for what could be cruddy stuff in the store.

Last year I grew Dakota Pearls and Butte Russets. I really liked the Dakota Pearls, but the catalog didn’t have any this year. Glad I kept some for seed. We’ll see how that works.
