I hope your second planting does a nice harvest. My potatoes are doing fine so far but the ones that are in a sunny area are starting to turn yellow and die back. Maybe they need more water or something. I planted them in black felt bags pretty early this season.
Thanks!
Hello my friends @lightsplasher.!!
Wow wonderful blogin post
I love your amazing post
Thank you for the shiare
I have potatoes that pop up in random places in my garden. Apparently the person that lived at this house 5 years ago grew potatoes and they keep popping up. It's really awesome!
I need to get more familiar with growing potatoes.
Every garden I have had I have had potatoes, but the crops have been random and inconsistent. I know when to pick them, but I'd just like to get more consistent with them, so I find it interesting to hear other people's experience with them.

It's interesting that if you leave a few potatoes in the garden when you harvest, some of them come up the following year. I've gotten some pretty nice potatoes from those plants
It's a bit weird when you plant corn where you had potatoes the year before, and you have random potato plants in the corn patch. :-)
Sorry for the delay, @amberyooper, but here's your second comment upvote as a reward for the gardening journal challenge.
That's too bad the first ones didn't come up. Wonder what happened?
I planted a whole packet of beans this year at two different times (the second half the packet two weeks after the first) and only four came up between the two plantings. I wondered if they were improperly stored somewhere after being produced or something. It was also a variety I had not planted before.
Oh well. What do you do.
Yeah, some beans are like that it seems. I've had problems with germination with my beans a number of times. Last year was bad for that, I ended up with way less pole bean plants than I planted, a lot of them didn't come up. This year, I've had about a 70% germination rate on the various bean seeds. It seems like it's either too wet or too dry...
