Deeply Rooted
I shovel a little loose dirt over the spud greens every few days, almost covering all the exposed leaves. They just shoot up again, and again..

I'll probably be around this forum later when you dig them. It will really be interesting if your experiment includes hilling some and not others. I'm not going to make any predictions on productivity. I think you may find it is easier to dig them if they are hilled.Stubbornhillfarm said:I was happy with last years crop but I am going to play around a bit this year. An old timer that we know says he never hills his potatoes and then I watched a movie on youtube; Return to Eden, I think was the name. The gentleman in the movie doesn't hill either. So I am going to purhaps do some experimenting and see what happens.
Here's to you all and this years potato crop!!
