think I have said before potato I buy at Costco seeds in the bag get russet and yukon gold

Have you tried the kennebec potato? I grew them a couple years ago when I had a larger space to garden and had a good yield. I was mixed between a red potato, yukon gold and the kennebec.

I’ve planted over 350 pepper seeds, 72 tomatoes and 254 eggplants and who knows how many lettuce, collards, kale, chard, celery and I’m not sure what else I’ve done in the last three days. t

Sight for sore eyes with this weather! Getting seeds ready and started is a great way to beat the winter blues!

Do not want the full garden in potatoes as I also grow reds old just use stacked three tires about 12 of them no bending

Never heard of a Kennebec potato. I learn something new everyday.
(Sounds yummie)
Today I cut back my 3 berries. First real trim in three years. I need to clean around their base and chicken wire the ground. I have 1 year old runners that I’m going to let go again this spring. I’d love it if they just take over that area of my yard. A favorite hideout for the chickens in the hot summer sun. I forgot to take before pictures.

Kennebec is your classic long baked potato . You have likely been eating them all your life . Just thought I would share the info . Sorry I interrupted .
