My leftover spuds from last summer have foot-long shoots on them. I’m going to resist the temptation because I know they’ll be freeze-killed if I set them out this early. I set them out mid-April last year and they got frozen pretty badly.
Really? I set mine out April 1, and covered them with about 6 inches of straw, and they did ok. Of course, my raised beds are close to the house, and so somewhat sheltered from the north east side.
