Awesome potatoes. Takes me back to my younger years. My garden was 300 ft wide (100 yards) I always planted 6 rows of potatoes. My wife, my kids and I would have an assembly line going. I would turn them over with a pitch fork , my wife would shake the vines , 2 of my kids were picking potatoes up and loading them in a cart and the youngest would pile up the vines. Ask any of my grown kids today if they want to dig potatoes and they will straight up say " on potatoes I'm digging will be digging a bag out of a bin in the grocery store " 😂😂 Wish I was still able to farm on that scale but those days are gone.
I'll keep digging up potatoes until my back says otherwise. I just enjoy the continual sense of surprise that I get during the process. Finding a big honkin' spud always makes me feel successful as a gardener, despite many other occasional setbacks. Thanks for watching my videos Russell! Be well.
