VERTICAL POTATOES -- How high will they grow?

Indeterminate potatoes can push up through mountains of soil in a potato tower but do they work?
Potato Towers, if they work, would be a great way to economize space if you have a small space garden or a balcony garden, but do they really work? This video is part one of a fun experiment on potato towers with a twist!

[@andrewkierstead4593]

Interesting!

[@braymoreg]

Looking forward to the towering comparisons

[@JustJoyHowdy]

U might have lots of taters. Never thought to do that. Space saver.

[@shortseasongarden]

I hope you're right. RUclips reviews of potato towers are mixed. In a month or so, I guess we'll know.:)

[@SomeGuy8796]

So what happened?

[@shortseasongarden]

I haven’t harvested them yet. The plants are still healthy. I’m waiting for the tops to die back. I’ll probably harvest them in mid to late September. That’s the typical time for potato harvest here in New Brunswick, Canada.
