I'm planting potatoes today in some raised bed boxes I inherited from my son. He semi retired into an RV and travels now so he has no garden. I'm going to try something I've never done before. The pieces of the potato are just going to be pushed into the soil very shallow and then covered with mulch made with pine shavings and dried leaves. As the taters grow I'll add mulch for the potatoes to make in instead of having to bring dirt around them. No bending to dig them and hopefully they will be cleaner. It may be a complete failure and wouldn't be the first and then again it may be another success. I'm due for one.
