Oh yes. I forgot about drainage. But so much easier to see how moist they are in clear bags than in pots. I am swearing this year that I will let them droop before watering rather than rotting any as happens so often around this time. I also use my moisture meter before watering.
If I were to move them to the covered raised beds in their pots and it dipped below 32 and the greenery got 'nipped' a little, do you think they would just grow new leaves? The tubers would be fine. But they might go dormant again if they thought winters was coming early.
