How do you Store all your spuds?
Patara, I could almost smell the fresh cut grass when I heard the lawn mower! We're still waiting for spring to come, here in NH 😉 -Melissa E.
Lord willing and Mother Nature willing you are going to have a huge mess of potatoes! It's absolutely one of my favorite garden fresh foods. I look forward to it every year. It's a lot of hard work but SO worth it! 🙂
You are too funny setting up that camera and 666 ROFLOL! 🙂
love seeing the green in the grass and trees, can't wait until it greens up around here
Enjoyed!
Just found your channel. excited to follow your vids. I'm a TN girl and my sweetheart was born and raised in Spring City, TN.
It looks great but don’t work yourself to hard.
Awesome video upload! Love the energy and enthusiasm about gardening that I see in your videos, just subscribed to your channel, wishing you a happy grow season and a bountiful harvest this year Patara!
I love how your face lite up when you mentioned your tractor! There are so many things a tractor can help out with. I can’t wait to get one for our place. I have so much to do with one.
Congrats on gettin' the potatoes in! 6-6-7 sounds like a better number. 😉 Blessings dear!
Been trying to get my garden started. It's been a slow process, many delays. Hopefully this week I'll be able to till the cleared area, setup the electric fence, and plant seedlings, and seeds
My eats have noticed lately…the last vestiges of an urban professional are gone. (meant as a compliment). "Bessie, our babie's pure country ; from her John Deere cap to her Red Wing boots. And she cleans up right pretty."
Great to see you.
Patara, it is so nice to see you. I love potatoes, part of my Irish heritage. Good job girl!
Planting potatoes, lucky you. We still have snow on the ground.
Husband and I planted garden last year. I had to plant my potatoes the week of Valentine's bc everyone kept saying they will not produce well past that point. That must be a Georgia thing. Husband wasn't up for helping me this year. So, I got chickens. Already lost three, but still confused about what to do with all the eggs they are putting out. Two of my birds I consider rescues bc they are broilers that got away from the chicken plant by chance. I guess bc of all the hormones they were given in the past they sometimes put out double yolks. I have learned so much watching your channel. I enjoy how you keep it real and the originality put into each video.
Do you mound only when you plant or do you continue to mound around the plant as it gets taller. That’s the hard part for me.
We are neighbors I’m from Rogersville Tn
Love you bubbly personality Patara!!!! So happy your back. I think I posted that like 5 times now. Lol
Used to live near Hiwassee Dam on the NC side. My good friend and her family live there still lol. My family is from Hanging Dog and Ebenezer. I'm now planting in McDowell County ( my daddy's WNC) I got seed potatoes in and the plants are popping up. Doing Ruth Stout method. Enjoyed watching your video!!
They use a large amount of potash so we spread our wood ashes where we are going to put our spuds .
Good to see a fellow Tennessean using this good land I call home to feed themselves. Tri-cities in east Tennessee is where I call home and we farm our land for food. Great area for morel mushrooms and wild edibles too. I hope more of our neighbors use their lands to produce food. We need to go back to the old ways of feeding our families if at all possible.
When you put the potato in it's trench does it matter if the eyes are to the sky or the ground?
Lord i give this abundant harvest to you. Please bless the harvest and triple it so that others may be blessed in JESUS holy name.AMEN!! PRAISE you Lord!!
How do you water your potatoes? and how often? Thank you! Love your videos!!!!!!
