I am growing potatoes for the first time and I chose Kennebec. Thank your for the information.
You’re welcome, and I hope you have a bountiful garden season! 😊
Enjoyable, easy to follow, great looking set up, natural methods by the look of it, which is the only way to go imho. And by luck, a plant based, vegan lifestyle mentioned. Didn't realise it when I clicked on. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing your kind and encouraging words, and I hope you have a bountiful garden season! 😊

Thx Fred! Just bought some kennebec seed potatoes today. I Google searched “how to plant kennebec potatoes” and you were the first thing that popped up. I hollared over at my hubby, “Hey this is the guy you watch!” 😃 😁 Now I feel confident! Off to the basement I go to cut me some spuds to heal over.
thanks for stopping by and sharing and I hope you have a bountiful garden season this year!
SAME I did the SAME THING 😂
thanks helped with my science project
you’re welcome and I’m glad the video was helpful for you, thanks for stopping by and sharing and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
Thank you for mentioning the healing process after cutting larger potatoes. That was the mistake I was making! My seed potatoes were rotting and now I know why.
You’re welcome Rachel, I’m glad the video was helpful for you and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
I was surprised when he said that. I’ve never done that, I’ve been growing Kennebec all of my life and I’ve never done that. Maybe it’s my location or luck but I always plant them about the middle of March.
Thanks!
+Jennifer Stone You’re welcome!
How far apart should rows be?
i love your videos, learning so much
+Devora Daniella i’m really glad to hear that you are learning a lot from the videos… I hope you have a wonderful day!
Thanks F Fread, great vid.
You're welcome!!
Does amending soil with sulfur really prevent scabs?
What is the best natural fertilizer for potatoes? I grew purple majesty last year they were big but scabby... i also grew the russet potatoes and they were not scabby at all looked great except for the size lol
I just ordered some KB's... what time of year is best to start hem? I am in massachusetts
Hello!, I noticed you planted the Kennebec's whole, is there any particular reason? , I guess what I mean is, if I cut them and plant them chits up in the ground won't there be a better yield? thanks in advance for answering.
Hi Bill, I have always bought my seed potatoes a little on the smaller side so I didn’t have to cut them up. That didn’t seem to affect the amount of harvest. I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
How often do you water?
Hi Tim, if there’s no rain during the week I deep water my plants about 1 inch every week. you’re always want to make sure you deep water your plants so you train the roots on your plants to go deeper into the soil.
Guess what I’m doing today!?! 🕊️
