Supper last weekend, a few red Norlunds and Lancelot leeks and garlic.
These were planted March 4th here in upstate SC. They have bloomed and I'm waiting for them to die back, then 2 weeks before I dig them. I don't really dig, but just pull back the straw and put them in a bucket for storage. 4 different varieties from Maine potato lady. I pulled the above for fresh eating and will continue to do so as needed until I harvest the whole crop.i planted about 40 lbs. and will eat from these over the summer. This plant produced an early harvest of 15 oz. from about a 2 oz. seed, so pretty good!
Couldn't really afford more mail order seeds, so I planted 20 lbs. of organic reds and golds today from Whole Foods today for fall harvest. They were about $25. Hope my soil temps don't get to warm, as I would like to keep the crop planted today into the winter. First time doing this in June, so wait and see what kind of harvest I get.
I planted all of them by brushing back the mulch, putting the seed potatoes on the ground, and covering with 18-20" of straw, works great and no digging!
