Noticing over the last few years that potatoes missed when digging in the Fall are in perfect condition, and start growing early in the Spring, I decided to determine if a Fall planting will produce a good crop. Twenty three potatoes were place in a row and marked with stakes. The are will be covered with wood chip mulch, after the first frost. At this time it is an experiment. Harvest will be about the end of July in 2011.

The mulch was removed from the overwintered in the ground Russian Blue Potatoes so the soil can warm up quicker. The one potato dug up was in perfect condition. It remains to be seen if the harvest warrants Fall planting or not.
