Do you think it's time to plant potatoes?

1 Answer

Answer :

It's very cold now, so no. Once it warms up and the soil warms up deep, you can bet. I let the potatoes germinate slightly and only then I plant. I put crushed horse manure or granulated under them. I do furrows now, I save my work. Then all you have to do is pick the weeds by hand. In the case of late frosts, the emerged potatoes can be covered with non-woven white foil, but you can also cover them immediately after planting, they will be warmer.

Last Answer : You will want to wait until the plants start to die back a bit. This is usually sometime in the fall. You can also carefully dig around the edges to get an idea of the size. This will also give you some idea of when you should harvest.
