The Potato Chronicles III
June 7, 2012
It will be exactly two months on Monday since we introduced our 2012 American Classic Potato Project. Our last update was on April 25th, The Potato Chronicles II. It’s time for another update, don’t you agree?
As you know, we have two trash cans of potatoes started, and you can see that the potato vines are now well above the top of the containers. This weekend, we'll be adding the final soil to top off these cans! We've let them go a bit longer than normal because we've had such an abundance of rain this week. We wanted to let the soil dry out a bit from the top before adding more.
I must tell you that this progress is light years ahead of what we experienced last year! I can't wait until fall, when we harvest, and see what kind of yield we get!
I can taste this Fall's potato soup already...you, too?
