The Potato Chronicles II


April 25, 2012

It's been exactly two weeks since we debuted our 2012 American Classic Potato Project!
It’s time for an update, don’t you agree?

As you know, we have two trash cans of potatoes started, and you can see that the potato vines have breeched the surface!  The vines are approximately two inches out of the ground as of this morning.  As soon as they hit the 4-6 inch mark, we’ll add 2-4 inches of soil to the surface, and continue the process.

I’m pleased to see our progress considering we’ve had temperatures in the low 40’s overnight since the cold front moved in last weekend.  We are back in a warm-up cycle now, so we should see some faster results moving forward!
