So we lifted the tarp in the spring to find a whole swarth of potato growth. I was concerned that they might not be that great because the leaves were pale, so I planted a few more in the gaps, but could have saved myself the trouble because they turned out just fine despite never getting mounded up. Now what to do with the 50 pounds of fingerlings that hubby harvested yesterday?????
