long sprouts
My dad had planted some potatoes last week and he had planted them so that the long sprouts are sticking up from the ground. It looks a bit strange because the sprouts are white and about a foot tall. Now I started to wonder, if it would have been better for him to bury the long sprouts in the ground. If the potatoes form on the underground stems, would the long sprouts grow more potatoes, if they were under the soil?
