So happy to see you PLACE the potatoes in the box, instead of throwing them in hard like most potato reveals I see. I'll never understand that, spend an entire season nurturing their growth only to carelessly bruise them immediately by chucking them hard into a container.
Gardening- character building and closer relationship with God. This is why it is so helpful to all who desires to get into it. God desires that we will use nature as a lesson book to understand His love for us. We are to give him all the praise at all times.
I would continue to mulch heavily next year. Let all that natural material breakdown. It will help to add nutrients and loosen the soil. Your method in that box is about half way between regular potato growth and the Ruth Stout method which doesn't bury the potatoes at all in the soil but mulchs 6 inches or more. Your harvest was really good and shows how well you took care of the plants.
Thank you for your comment. I will do the same, more mulch next potato planting season. I never heard of the Ruth Stout method. Good to know. Thanks! I will continue plant the hybrid approach.
@@myebackyardgardennhabitat473 I use a hybrid approach as well. The only difference is I use grass clippings to cover my soil. Glad to see, unlike others who just throw away tiny potatoes, you, like me keep them. My wife would make a white gravy and cook them in it. She calls that side "new potatoes". I'm hoping to do well this year.
@@myebackyardgardennhabitat473 I sure wish newbie gardeners would ask the guestions and then give a chance for us to answer before they proceed. Love and blessings My Sweetie, and everyone.
Beautiful harvest. Little advice, never grow onions around other plants, they release something to get rid of the competition and surrounding plants will suffer. You may have noticed, that the plant next the onion had dies before the others.
Thank you! Very helpful advice. No wonder I was having difficulty in growing potatoes along the front side of the box. I’ll keep that in mind next potato season. Thanks for dropping by! Appreciate it.
What? Like bulb onions, really? I read you can plant onions with broccoli, but there’s always contradicting results on this one. My broccoli seems to be doing fine, but my onions are only seedlings and it’s winter so they’re not growing. Once the broccoli is harvested I plan to only grow onion in that bed
I'm not trying to be contradictory, but I always plant either onions or chives in amoungst my carrots to confuse WhiteFlies. I definately helps with that.
Wow, I have potatoes next to my onions right now - yikes. I have potatoes in several other places as well, so if I lose these, I'll be ok I guess. Thanks so much for that tip.
Hello’s there. Thank you for your question. My potato box has thriving red wigglers composting worms. I overwinter them with scrap food (burried about 6 inches) in 4 locations and leaves mulch on top as brown materials for their food and insulation, too. They help amend the soil for me. Red wigglers self regulate so they don’t overcrowded my potato box. But I cannot use sharp materials to harvest my potatoes. I have to use my hands so I won’t hurt my composting worms.
Harvest on cold days and worms will go deeper into ground. Cut off tops early and let sit uncovered so top is c older. I think your impatience to harvest cost a lot of bulk in the harvest.
Thanks for dropping by. I made the box myself using leftover wood and sidings when my husband and I built the tree/shrub house. I just bought red potatoes from the supermarket. They are organic potatoes. Good luck gardening! It’s therapeutic and productive.
Thank you for your comment. The soil I used is 50-50 sand and top soil. The soil looks compact but it is not. As you can see I don’t have to use shovel to dig potatoes.
@@myebackyardgardennhabitat473 Hey there I see you didn't have to dig but top soil can still be heavy and will compact over time when it settles which it will, after the several months of the growing season & the extra weightbeing added over time of more soil & water. But obviously will loosen back up once you move through it at dig time. What I meant was it was to compact for growing in. Remember that's what each potato has to live & grow inside. Maybe you could try a larger amount of compost instead of topsoil? I've just had better luck with as loose a soil as possible. I hope you find something that works better for you either way. Happy Gardening!
Salamat sa panonood. Kailangan po mabuhaghag or sandy ang lupa. Dapat ang pinagtanman mo ng patatas ay in direct sunlight for at least 6 hours. Ang binhi mo na patatas ay dapat may kunting sibol na. Ibaon nyo po ng 6 inches sa lupa. Ang lupa ay dapat moist hindi wet. Hayaan nyong mag dry ng kunti bago binyagan uli. Ang pataba ay pedeng dried cow manure, o tubig galing sa pinaghugasan ng isda o ng bigas. Iwasan na maglagay ng synthetic fertilizer. Mas mainam na natural or organic fertilizer.

Something so amazing about a potato harvest! Like unwrapping a gift ❤️
Indeed. It’s sort of therapeutic, too. By the way, thank you for watching!
@@myebackyardgardennhabitat473 lol it's therapeutic all right - like Christmas morning or big birthday party with presents.
Awesome! God is awesome!
Indeed gardening and working with earth can be a spiritual practice.

Thank you for your comment. I also noticed that potatoes with less bruising stores longer.
Are you sure of that? Only Containers that are sitting on pavement, or something like that you mean, right? Blessings everyone.
Also rubbing them so hard to get the dirt off that they rub the tender skins off at the same time…
Very good effort
The potatoes had been much bigger if you allowed the plant to die completely. How very nice harvest 🎉🎉🎉

Amen. God gave us these gifts (life, resources and time) and what we do with these gifts is our gifts to Him.
I enjoyed the music with the reveal. Peaceful.

New subscriber, Nice harvest!
Thank you so much!
I'm thinking those potatoes are not ready to harvest yet. Tops aren't Dead enough.
You’re right. They were still babies when I harvested them.

I think one more week and they were ready .
I agree. I could have waited for another week. Thanks for dropping by.
Lutuin na yan madam.... hehehhe

Nice potatoes
Thank you!
Thank you!
Laki na ng potatoes mo ah yong amin liit pa lang. Baka couple months pa mag laki
Impatient nga ako Sir Ayee. I could have waited for another week or two.
Dito lang sis . Kenneth Marie vlog . Dami mo tanim sana all
U need more dirt in that box, potatoes need plenty of dirt. And should be watered at least once a week even if there is mulch in your box.
Thank you. I will add some soil angd plenty of mulch this upcoming planting season.
Great harvest! Can you tell me what you amended your soil with or how you fed the plants?
Hello’s there. Thank you for your question. My potato box has thriving red wigglers composting worms.

Where did you get your grow bed, and what variety of red potatoes did you use? I'd like to grow some nice red ones this year.

Watching a lady pick potatoes
Kalembang done na po
Thank you.
I think your soil was to compact. You needed much looser soil.

Thanks for your observation. I will try to fluff the soil next planting season.

Ano po ba ang tamang pag-aalaga ng patatas.Eto po kase ang failure ko sa lahat ng tanim ko na gulay.Yon pong klase ng lupa at pataba
Salamat sa panonood. Kailangan po mabuhaghag or sandy ang lupa. Dapat ang pinagtanman mo ng patatas ay in direct sunlight for at least 6 hours. Ang binhi mo na patatas ay dapat may kunting sibol na. Ibaon nyo po ng 6 inches sa lupa. Ang lupa ay dapat moist hindi wet. Hayaan nyong mag dry ng kunti bago binyagan uli.
Ang pataba ay pedeng dried cow manure, o tubig galing sa pinaghugasan ng isda o ng bigas. Iwasan na maglagay ng synthetic fertilizer. Mas mainam na natural or organic fertilizer.
Good luck po!
@@myebackyardgardennhabitat473 thank you po,susubukan ko po magtanim
Good luck po. Let me know the update kung may time po kayo.
Full pack po mam para sau .. New supporter po

all ur potatoes are so small, u prolly grew to many together...keep it to six and mix more compost into it with wood chip mulch on top
Thanks for the tips! Yes. I overcrowded my raised bed.
Background music so annoying
I am sorry that you didn’t like the music.
