There is nothing better than homegrown vegetables. They are so much better than what you buy in the stores. I love to go to the farmer's market and get tomatoes. There is nothing better than a good tomato sandwich in the summer, good bread, mayo, salt and pepper. Thank you for sharing.
Well now I want to try to grow a potato plant! I learned much from you Mr. Brown. Thank you.🙏
Thanks for sharing your tips, Mr. Brown! This will be your first springtime retired and I'll bet you're looking forward to it. God bless you and your sweet family.
I agree with supporting local businesses. You might pay a bit more, but customer service usually excels.
5 pounds for me I grow them in the big large buckets that were used to be for trees you know companies get trees already big I got some of them buckets so I started putting my potato seed in there. I think I got about 40 pounds from 5 poundsPontiac red I’ve already started my potatoes. I will be starting another one next week.
Thank you. I needed a video like this one . Very informative. I hope y’all have a wonderful day. God bless you and your family
I'm 83 - Been there, done that. 😊 Hands on education from my daddy. We planted Irish (red) potatoes.
We just had soil brought in to the rock top. Getting us a tiller soon. Praying for all to have a successful garden!!❤
I planted white-brown skin potatoes and some sweet potatoes sets. We love both. Started my seed trays also for early plants. Ran out of soil so have to go gather up some tomorrow. Just planting today has improved my spirit so looking forward to hitting the garden and herb garden
Thank y’all reminds me of growing up with my grandpa and grandma. We gardened canned full sustainable farm. I would sit and see with grandma hours a day. That was my favorite time. Thank you both for making my day. Seriously Thank you. 🙏🏼
Thx so much for this potato planting!! God Bless!
Last year I bought some seed potatoes and tucked the paper bag under my camper to keep them out of the sun and rain. Would you believe those things sensed the dampness of the earth under the bag and sent down roots?! I tried to pick the bag up and the bottom tore out! They will seriously grow almost anywhere.
So happy time to warm up again , need many prayers right now thank you! 🙏
praying for you
I'm originally from WV and my grandpa always planted his potatoes on April 15th so that's when my sister planted hers too. Always had lots of great potatoes. He usually planted Kenabecs too. (not sure of the spelling).
we always plant our potatoes on Good Friday . I live in western NC and that has been the way my family has done it all my life and I'm 62. I dont know the reasoning behind that day but it seems to work!
Great Video Mr Brown, Ryker & Preston‼️ 😃 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Thanks for the great potato planting video y'all!
That’s some beautiful soil!
Those rows sure look good. I'm planting in containers. I have my seed potatoes. Thank you for reminding me to add perlite so my soil won't be compacted by the rains we have been having. I really enjoy ya'll's videos.
So glad you’re teaching this, I’ve tried for the past four or five years and only got some the first year. Thanks again for the lesson. Praying we’ll have success this year. Blessings to the Browns. N
Aloha Grands... well done 🤙Thank you for sharing your knowledge, Mr. Brown! Blessings for your crops.
Thank you so much for sharing ❤.
I will have to try that. Thanks for the info.
God bless you both
Enjoyed your video on your method of growing potatoes! I grew some in my 4x8 bins last year(Ohio)...like you said, you cannot beat the flavor of homegrown! I think I am going to try to cut and chit help. 😊
You can kill the bermuda grass by covering with cardboard and a thick layer of straw or wood chips on top. If any grass pops up pull back the straw add more cardboard and re-cover. One season, Summer, will normally kill it out.
Love watching your videos,thanks, may the LORD BLESS❤❤🤗,stay safe and continue on....
Ryker and Preston are cute little boys, grandpa’s little helpers. This is making precious memories and teaching them how to grow a garden. I love potato’s so much, all kinds of potatoes are delicious. God bless you both and your sweet family.
I just love yukon gold potatoes and Kennebeck too Thanks for sharing
Love these farming videos,thank you❤
Ty so much! Sure enjoyed it!
Thank you for sharing this informative video Mr Brown!
Hi 👋🏼 Mr. Brown🌱
Id love to do the wheat straw method you talked about ,but I live in Southern California 🔥🔥You might want to try vinegar in a sprayer to kill the grass or weeds. I heard vinegar works.
I hope Ryker is better an not sick But if so get better soon ♥️ y’all keep on gardening 🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱
Big box stores aren’t going to be there if you have a malfunction or a problem. They also stand by what they sale!
I can tell you how to kill that grass -- black plastic ground cover. I used it a couple o years ago and had the best garden in my 50+ years of gardening. You just use a little butane torch to cut holes in it and plant through the hole. It is kind of spendy the first year, but I'm to the point that I can't run a tiller or a hoe anymore. I've had it down now for about 3 years and can still use it at least one more year. Try it -- you'll like it! (Watch a video about it o the Living Traditions You Tube channel.)
Such good memories … I remember sitting and cutting seed potatoes with my mom. We grew ours in furrowed out rows. Our sweet potato slips were planted in ridges. I never grew the quantity she and grandpa did…. But I miss those days.
Great video! I want to caution you on straw now days. There's been several homesteads that I follow that bought straw that had been tainted with some strong pesticides that killed their crops and poisoned their land in the last 2 years in a row so its important to know where the straw came from.
thank you , yes we know where the straw com from, its grown locally
Enjoyed watching your video. I’m hoping to plant a few potatoes this year.
Just planted mine in molasses tubs.
Fantastic camera man and helper! When we had a garden, we tried to make sure we wouldn't have more frost here in North Florida. Haven't had a garden in about 2 years now but you make me want to get out there again! By the way, when in May is Ms. Lori's last day? I know you both can't wait!

Hi Mr Brown, I battle with that Bermuda grass it's tough stuff. Have you tried burning it? I used to spray it and it still would come back. Burning works pretty good you just have to be very careful of course. We burn it when the grass is dry about this time of year.
Congratulations
Love it. Good to know.
If you store stuff under the house don’t you get mice eating stuff? Just wondering. We had mice under our house and I think they are gone.
I hope.
Oh and Bruce says a man who wears bib overalls is a man after his own heart figuratively speaking. Bruce loves Bibbs as much as Mr. Brown.
Looks like you’re having hot weather just like we are in northwestern Oklahoma close to the panhandle, but not directly inside the panhandle
It’s going to be 80 today and 80 on Saturday. my grass is starting to turn green.
Yesterday it was 82 for the high and we had a huge
fire 🔥 Somewhere 15 to 20 miles or so going south east.
That’s all I heard all afternoon was firetrucks . it must’ve been a doozy. But it’s been mild and yesterday it was windy..
We need moisture .
UNDERNEATH THE HOUSE IS ENCLOSED, NOT MUCH GETS IN
@@WhippoorwillHoller ok that’s good.
Mice got under our house because it was heated.
The guy who put in a new ac and heating when he did a vent in our bathroom that someone put a tile floor on said they disconnected the heat vent and left it un done and you guys were paying to heat all that space under your house. It was warm under the house in our crawl space. He said no wonder you had mice. . They’re gone now. We got them I hope.
What planting zone are you in? I was surprised to see your soil was not frozen still. We are in 6 B. Daffodils are coming through but our soil still seems frozen past an inch or so. Of course we have clay soil which we have tried to amend for over thirty years. Our builder stripped all the top soil off and sold it, so it has been a struggle.

This was inspiring for me. We are planting spuds next week.
I noticed you did not mention about hardening your cuttings before planting. Is that step unnecessary? I am a bit confused!
Loving your family always ❤🥰🌱
YES, LET THEM CURE A FEW DAYS
@@WhippoorwillHoller ~okay, great to know 🥰
Mr. Brown would love to know how to get a pond to seal. We've tried everything from pigs to ducks to anything someone suggest with no luck so far.
I have seen some that will not seal I am still working on mine and thinking
Howdy There To Mrs Laurie & Mr Brown...It's been a while ..I haven't forgotten about you & what Info that you have shared over these years... Keep up the Great Work!! I Just Love You Both!!
Hey Lori, here in Maine we have an issue with almost every bag of potatoes you get at the store being green when you wash the dirt off. What does it mean? I’ve heard you should never eat any potatoes with any hint of green. What do you guys think?
WHEN YOU DIG POTATOES, YOU NEED TO PUT THEM IN A DARK DRY PLACE, DONT WASH THEM, CURE THEM SEVERAL WEEKS, BEFORE CANNING OR EATING, BIG BOX COMPANIES DONT DO THIS AFTER DIGGING THEY WASH AND SPRAY WITH A CHEMICAL, AND SHIP
❤
Do you have a inside access door to your crawlspace?❤😊❤
Will it not kill them if we get a cold snap before April. I live in the Ouachitas. My dad always planted potatoes on St. Patrick's day unless they were predicting a cold snap or it was too wet. He said it would make them rot.
My daddy was born in 1926 in Hatfield, Arkansas. My grand parents were born in 1896.
No, well insulated, people plant potatoes here in February alot
@@WhippoorwillHoller I live in Southwest Arkansas. I have seen snow on Easter Sunday more than once. I have lived here my whole life. My family has lived in this county for 200 years.
How do u overwinter ur potatoes? I can some but really like them fresh.
I can some, freeze some, we put some under our house, its enclosed, and stays cool, and dark, and warm enough in the winter
I would love to deer hunt that
I'm hard of hearing and you are coming through just fine.
💖💖🙏🙏👍👍🙏🙏💖💖
Have you got a cold, Ms. Lori, get you a tissue, you can edit that out.
No, my grandson is the camera man, allergies, but its fine
Hey Mr. Brown, l am 69, older than you ! But, listening to you reminded me so much of working with my Grandad out in the garden. Thankyou
You are absolutely right no potatoes compares to homegrown,same with tomatoes. Once I was I guess 8 or 9 I help my Dad and Mom we'd go to Mamaw's and help her plant,we spent most of a day,they did long rows and used a plow horse or mule. We cut seed while Daddy plowed ,we could see him from the porch. As well as I can remember we planted Irish or white cobblers,they made a almost round potatoes but they had lumps,really good mashed potatoes. I'd love to grow some. Ahh, the memories God Bless your potato patch,Mr. Brown.🧑🌾😊💗
COMMENTING & LIKING ALL THE COMMENTS*!!! This is such a great way to help out those we follow & it doesn't cost you anything but a few minutes of your time. Anyone can get credit for 90 days back, so get to liking & commenting & sharing!
Thanks for this jewel of a tidbit! I will go back and like and share!
I always like but not so much commenting. So maybe even a hello the weather is fine might help then.
Got my garden tilled and ready to go yesterday.
I agree ❤❤❤
I had no idea! Thank you. I love, love this channel and this dear sweet couple. They are my go to for any advice on cooking and planting.
This makes me think of my Dad planting the garden. He always had on bib overalls and a shirt. It brings back such good memories.
Thank you Mr. Brown for sharing your technique for growing potatoes. You have some good looking helpers!God bless all of you✝️🙏❤️
im a city girl, born and bred, but i've been wanting to grow potatoes in my backyard garden, and after watching this WONDERFUL video, i might just do that!!! this was great information for me, and i was delighted to see grandsons at the end.......you're always TEACHING.....im glad to be among your students..will let you know how i fare in my endeavor.......THANK YOU!!! God's Blessings!!!
It's great your grandkids are helping you. A win win situation. They are learning a skill and us older ones can use the help.
My Grandkids expect to get paid to help I don't ask them for help anymore
What's more feasable financially...planting whole potatoes or buying seed? 2:44 I'm a 'Little House on the Prairie' fan...remember when Carolyn tilled the land by hand (with oxen) when Charles got hurt? Yes sir, you are correct...support local. I knock big box stores and I rarely shop in them to tell the truth. You wont see me in a Walmart, not a Sam's Club and that's a promise. The reason being is the sons had the father committed because they wanted the store. Can you IMAGINE??? I grew up without a daddy and I'd do ANYTHING to get him back. I still remember him fondly to this day and I'm 63 and he passed when I was 8 1/2...yet some treat their parents horribly. Sorry, I digressed there. Anyway, is this the best time of year to plant?
Always - ALWAYS a pleasure to watch another vid of you folks AND this time of and with Pa Brown. I am 74 years old and to see you guys always reminds me of the good ole folks of West Texas where folks are just that Folks - plain folks the kind you enjoy to be around - Kick off your shoes get comfortable and stay awhile. Good comfortabe people.
Hey Miss Lori and Mr Brown, I agree with you about buying local. Living out in the woods, you sure appreciate the local hardware when you need something👍.
Otherwise, I would have to go an hour 😳.
That's a nice machine!
It sure will save your back🎉.
Hey Ryker ,great job filming!
I didn't see Preston ,but he did a great job planting too✔️.
Happy Tater growin 🤗😘
JO JO IN VT 💞
Thanks so much
Hey there, Miss Lori & Mr. Brown, This was a wonderful video! Yep those grandkids are the best! Helping Grandma & Grandpa!! Thanks for sharing! Can’t wait to see your next video! ❤ & Prayers
Thank you, thank you. Fixing to plant our potatoes here real soon so this video helped. For the last two years, we didn't know what we were doing and I'm determined to get a good yield. Thanks, Pa.
Thank you for sharing your potato growing techniques, Mr. Brown. Well done Ryker and Preston. Keep up the good work fellas.
My Grandma used to start planting her garden about February 14. I have always followed her lead. My cousin said you and Dad always had a green thumb. You two had the most beautiful gardens. Well we just listened to my grandma and his mom.
Informative video and I really loved your helpers! Teach them young and they'll always remember. I'm 67 and remember my grandparents spending time with me, teaching me things and telling me stories from their childhood. Those were the most precious of times and best of memories. Thank you for sharing your grandchildren's memories in the making with their grandpa.
Great video Mr. Brown👍👍🤗 Lots of Good Information 👍🤗😁 Blessings upon your Vegetable Crops🙏
Hello, I did not get to comment on a video from Valentine's you guys posted I got to see it yesterday, I so enjoyed the conversation about how you'll met ,I chuckled you are both so beautiful and happy together I had to let you know how much I enjoyed it , God bless you both !
Thank you
Thank you for showing your handsome helpers! They look like they did a great job!
I agree on supporting your local businesses! Very important, especially nowadays.
Love that Mr. Brown likes to support local businesses. Its a great American tradition. Love the video.
My granny planted potatoes every year in her "victory" garden in her backyard. The victory was already won, but she kept the garden up until she grew too old to keep it up. Her garden was always weed free and tilled often. Y'all's neat and clean garden reminds me of hers. She was a farmers' daughter from Texas, and although she migrated to California in the 1930s she remained a farmer's daughter until her death.
🙂Hi Mr Brown and camera man and planting man! Thank you so much for the lesson in growing potatoes! The different ways to plant is very interesting!! Spring is gonna be here before we know it! YAYYYY! God bless you all!!
I enjoyed this potato planting video Mr. Brown! Ryker and Preston excelled at their jobs! I am excited for this growing season 😊 Glad you got that good tiller and even better, locally. Support our local businesses. Hope you and Miss Lori are having fun--God bless you both ❤
. ..and GREAT JOB, Ryker! You were an awesome camera man! Can't wait to see those taters you planted, Preston! You're both great helpers!
Ours go in next week! Got the spot for onions tilled SONday! Yay! Spring has sprung! Tfs! Blessings!
You plant the potatoes closer to what my moma did than anyone else ever did.
Dear Mr Brown- thank you, as always, for your clear direction. I value your input. Had a poor crop of potatoes last year…. Tried them in raised beds… I’ll try your method this year:)
This is Bonnie not Michael. Just wondering where you are located. I’m in Augusta, Ga. I’ve tried to plant potatoes here but it’s too hot I think. I felt pitiful yesterday and planted two grocery store potatoes that had sprouted. Bugs will probably enjoy them. Good luck.
I actually thought Mr. Brown would have this on his SKILLS, REELS and REFUGE channel. Oh, well. Long as I get to watch, I don’t care where I find it. Bless both of you.
Thanks to your comment, I have found PaBrown's channel!
🥰
What a great teacher, t hank you from a small gardener❤
Oh I wish it was warm enough where I am to start my potatoes. The nights are still about 20 degrees here. The gardening bug has bit me and I am itching to get out in my garden and start planting! I did see a Robin in my trees this morning, so maybe that is a good sign.
Yes thank you for sharing your tater planting skills. Had some luck with potatoes . My husband says the potato bugs get fat on seven dust😅so we stopped growing a few years. Last year I planted in 30 gallon grow bags they grew better than we thought. My father in law always planted potatoes on Good Friday and when he set the potato he would give it a twist and cover it up . He’s be gone for 15 years now he was a Good Man , an old time Baptist preacher . Any way enjoy your videos.
I have a couple potato planters that my husband’s grandfather left here, on our farm. I taught my granddaughter how to plant them a couple years ago. She was amazed when we started digging them up! She was 10 at the time.
What are they made with. I have some buckets that I got free at the grocery store that held fresh flowers. I’m hoping those will be ok to plant food in?
@@JustBrenda55 wood & metall
To far north to plant yet but the planning is in the works
I enjoyed this video Mr. Brown and your grandson's helping you. I love God's earth. I love the smell of it and I can taste it when I eat beets which I love.❤
how timely. We are planting tomorrow. My husband chose reds and Yukon. Hope you have a bumper crop this year. Mr Browns advice is spot on. thanks.
You too!
Hello Mr Brown and Miss Lori. You've got good looking grandsons. I agree , everbody plants potatoes different, but in the end when they come up, they are the same. I cut my potatoes like you do. Learned it from my dad. He had a beautiful garden, even tried growing peanuts one year. Had sucess. Guess he mixed the right soil. My parents lived in Gainesville, Mo. Can't wait to see what ya'll be doing next.
I appreciate people who like yo keep buying from your local ma and pa type stores to keep them going. Thank you. Hope your potatoes yield a bountiful harvest for you. God bless.
I’m off work today. I’m just sitting in the kitchen listening to Mr. Brown teach me about potatoes. I love watching you guys so much. Have a great day ❤
What growing zone are you? I'm a 6b and we have been so warm the last few weeks that I'm thinking of planting mine two weeks early. We usually plant around the 17 of March.
7 a or 7b
Thank you Mr Brown for teaching us how to plant potatoes 🥔 I have a question if you don't have wheat straw can you use dried leaves to cover your rows ?? God bless you n Mrs Lori made me happy your grandkids learning n working with you 🙏 🇺🇸
Yes Dried leaves are great
@@WhippoorwillHoller thank you 😊
Hey Sweetie 🥰 Hope y'all are doing well ❤️
I grew potatoes in a cardboard box last summer. They were small but tasted good. A few sweet potatoes. And lots of tomatoes. My grandson planted garlic last fall and they seem to be doing great. The green beans were plentiful. I bought a used rototiller last fall and can’t wait to till the back yard up. 😂 I’m 74 and I’m not as strong as I used to be but I love to garden and can the bounty!
That’s the way my dad and grandma taught me how to grow potatoes and I’ve always had plenty. Keep up the great teaching Mr. Brown the old ways is better than the new ways. God bless
Waiting for a little while in MN. But soon, I can almost smell spring. .🌷
(Insert raging snowstorm here) 😂
