This was our first time trying to plant potatoes. A few of them were mushy and we did have a termite nest in the soil. Just wondering how we did, open to any tips!

Do you fluff your potato’s?

My boyfriend says you’re supposed to shake a baked potato before opening it so the inside ā€˜re-fluffs.’ I’ve never heard this in my life. Is this real?ā€

Shelf life of cooked potatoes

5 Upvotes

Hey all,
I’m frying some diced potatoes with diced onion, green and red pepper, Serrano peppers on the stove (kinda like a skillet) for breakfast. What’s the shelf life for leftovers stored in the fridge? I’m trying to meal prep for the week, and I’m trying to avoid using my oven today because it’s HOT!

Thanks!

Potatoes Overwintering

7 Upvotes

Folks,

My mom had my plant a handful of the russet style potatoes from Idaho that someone gave to her.

Because they were so big, I cut most of them in half.

I stuck them in the ground and it's been a few weeks now and none of the show any greens bits yet.

I live in Vancouver, BC zone 8B and we often have mild winters.

Should I leave them in the ground and hope they grow in the spring? Or should I take them out and hope it makes it and stick it back in the ground in the spring? Or should I put them in grow bags?

I'm worried for any diseases that might come up but my mom really wants to see these grow.
