Planting Potatoes

korbo, Sep 13, 1:51am
Don't laugh, but have forgotten which way you plant the seed potatoes. Do you put the sprout bit in first, or the potato, with the sprout at the top or bottom. Last year, just threw some old wrinkled up ones in the garden, they grew and we ate them for a few weeks. Have no idea what brand tho.thanks

An old Maori farmer writes to his son in prison; Kia ora my son, this year I wont be able to plant the kumara and potatoes because I can't dig the field by myself, I know if you were here, you would help me son.
The son writes back; Kia ora dad don't even think of digging the field because thats where i buried all the money I stole.
The police read what the Son wrote in the letter and the next day the whole field was dug up and the Police were looking for the money but nothing was found.
The following day the son wrote again. Now plant the potatoes and kumara dad. Its the best I can do from here.

I just throw all my peelings onto the garden. I have about 50 potato plants coming up now.So I don't think it really matters. My self sprouting tomatoes are like a lawn in the garden as well.
