Potato plants are a great addition to early raised beds or large containers. Potatoes are a cool-season crop that grow best in early Spring and late Fall when the days are warm and the nights are cool. The tops of Potatoes cannot withstand frost. The edible part of the plant is an underground stem called a tuber. Potatoes are a source of carbohydrates and provide good amounts of vitamins and minerals.
Plant Potatoes roughly 4 inches deep and cover with well-draining, loose soil. They require full sun for best results. Potatoes benefit from compost along with fertilizer rich in potassium and phosphorus. Potatoes are ready to harvest when the skin becomes firm, but one can harvest small “new” potatoes early if desired.
