Been a cool and wet spring. I always start my 1st crop of potatoes in last of January. I wait a month and plant 2nd crop in March. Due to cool weather it's first year for 3rd planting in mid April. I've pulled 1st and 2nd crop already and gave away several 5gal buckets of potatoes to neighbors and elderly family.
Agreed central Texas is experiencing weather that is not normal. We usually get hot by the last week of February..... it's still cool and we are in mid may. My sugar pumpkins are simply loving it! Praise God our pumpkin harvest has exploded!!!
Hello from TN! Here it is 5:40 in the morning and you have my mouth Watering for taters! I think that I could eat a plate of just potatoes, fixed in different ways! I've been a tater baby ever since I can remember. I used to eat them raw! You were blessed this year! We have clay soil here. Over the years we've worked to improve our soil. When the road department cleared trees from the sides of the road near our house, we had them bring the "chipped" up limbs and such to our place. We have a special place to put them. We let them break down for years. Then add that to the gardens. We compost leaves too. We live on a dirt road so it's not bad. It takes work to get the soil good. We cover crop in the spring and fall. We grow pretty good potatoes on our place. I like the looks of those fingerling potatoes. We may have to try them. We enjoy your videos and appreciate your gardening wisdom. I had not noticed the little white nubs on the potatoes. If I see them now, I'll know what they signify! Those sorts of tidbits of wisdom are what keeps me listening to your channel! I believe that it's important to keep learning! I've probably been in the garden since I was born! Our Mother always had use working in the garden. I'll be 70 soon, but I learned something today! Thank you and GOD bless
I remember eating potatoes raw as well, we would hold the potato in one hand and would hold the salt shaker in the other. I remember doing it until someone told me I could get worms in my stomach so I stopped. Lol! I can’t believe how hard and cement like the soil was in between the rows! I never remember ever seeing soil like that before. No wonder they could never grow anything in that solid clay soil. 🙏🏻🥰🇨🇦
I found some of those while cleaning the garden beds in Feb, but the chickens ate them while they were cleaning the garden too. I sure will save them next time!! LOL
I’m close to the gulf, just now hearing about possible tropical weather from you on RUclips because I stopped watching the news. 😂 I told my husband yesterday all that rain from San Antonio to Houston felt like a tropical storm.
Well Danny, We are supposed to be in the 90s at the middle of next week in north Mississippi. Oh boy, its to early for a tropical storm for you guys. Prayers for all of you down there.
I'm on day 2 with the shoes u did a review on and like u I love them like I said I've had 2 strokes and my balance isn't the best I really put them to the test yesterday 10 miles and I never took a nose dive and I've did that a bunch once I get used to the extra weight of the shoes because there put together so good like u say there fantastic thanks do a video some day caught clean and cook fish fry yum
Listening to this while I'm working. It's bringing up memories of Pawpaw in his TuffNut overalls, him plowing up the potato patch with the mules, and all of us kids picking up potatoes - enough for us, the preacher's family, and the family of the "widder woman" down the road.
Amazing potato harvest! I’m growing some in buckets this year (I live in a trailer park in town so not much room) and I’m excited to see how it goes. Thx for the very valuable information, I’m listening! 😃
I have potato(and apple)scab in my soils. I could treat the soil but I try to do organic. I only plant potatoes in 4 and 5 gallon buckets and my grandkiddos love ❤ love bucket dumping day lol. Its like finding buried treasures for them. Last year we had one bucket that had one small plant. I figured we might get maybe one or 2 potatoes if lucky That bucket had 4 potatoes but one of them weighed in at 2 pounds! It almost filled the bucket! Lol. The other three were ping pong ball sized. Just an old red potato that sprout from the store so no idea the name. I love the little potatoes tho I bought a bag of red/yellow mini potato a few years back that sprouted. We've been growing them from that bag ever since.
I am growing potatoes in 30 gallon storage totes on top of cinder blocks. It's always wet around New Orleans, but this year is crazy. Expecting up to 10 inches of rain by this weekend!
@@DragonPrepper oh be safe! In my part of Michigan its borderline drought. Ive usually got problems getting the garden worked and planted between rain storms this year we had to pull the hoses out early. But its helped with the building of my greenhouses. I'm an always a silver lining gal lol.
Hi from Joe and Diana, You guy's homestead is just beautiful. I, Diana, have gardened all of my life and I realize how little I know. Thank you and Miss Wanda for the great videos. I just placed a Hoss Tools seed order and mentioned DSH. Thank you for helping us with the varieties to try. Jesus bless you guy's. Thanks again
Good Morning! What an awesome harvest! Thank you for sharing. About the True Potato Seed......Do NOT eat. Break open, it will have small seeds inside that look like tomato seeds. Clean them and if you want to plant, soak them in water for a few days before planting. They will take longer to grow of course.
I took my french fingerlings from last year's harvest that started growing and planted them in our greenhouse this winter. I've been harvesting them for last couple of days. They're huge and so beautiful. No blemishes at all. I think that's going to be one of my go to ways to plant them.
Dear Wanda and Danny, you two look like treasure hunters! Indeed, you are growing treasures all over your homestead :-) Thank you for your time making your excellent videos!!!
Same here I did get my German butterballs in about 2 weeks ago but I just got my buckets ready for my little taters(you know the ones from the store lol ) we love baby potatoes here and this will be year 4 of planting them out. Only the all blue fingerlings didn't do well. Something chews holes in them. The little divots heal over but they just don't thrive for me. I will be looking into these French fingerling for next year as all my buckets are filled(or about to be lol).
OH, how beautiful your red potatoes are. Those are some HAPPY plants!!! SO happy for you guys!!! I LOVE watching you dig those treasures..... Love to both of you. LOVE your videos...
Those are True Potato Seed Pods. Just set them aside to ripen... then save the seeds. I let mine ripen last year, the saved the seeds. Planted thin indoors early and then set the starts out. It will take 2-3 seasons to get seed potatoes from TPS. But... If you have different varieties you like growing side by side you could cross pollinate and come up with a new variety of your own. It would be an excellent experiment for in the high tunnel.
I am so happy you gave us this information. I had never even heard of potatoes doing that. Curiousity was killing me and havent had time to research it. Thank you so much for the info. God bess!
Thank you!! I have learned so much from watching your channel!! I'm in my second year of gardening and trying to remember all that I learned and saw from my great-grandmother's (Big Mama) garden growing up, and following Mother Nature's Phases of the Moon 🌙🌚🌕🌓 and the Old Farmers Almanac to know when to plant your above ground and below ground crops to receive a better harvest. It's alot to keep up with and know as a gardener, but I'm enjoying Gardening and happy to be growing my own food!! 😊😀 🌱🪴Thanks for all your help!! 👍
Very nice harvest my friend. I took some of your advice this year and modified my methods and we are looking real good so far. Thank you. Happy Homesteading
Absolutely awesome potatoe harvest. Where I live is a mix of sandy loam and clay. In a season on new or tired ground I can get 2 buckwheat crops in and then winter rye......adds nitrogen and really helps keep the soil loose. I also have a fairly large supply of leaves every fall. Having a tiller like yours makes chopping the leaves and green manures in a breeze. Both of the green manures I use is really cheap to purchase the seeds. When I plant potatoes I bed underneath and on top with leaves then cover with dirt. Helps retain moisture and keeps the dirt loose around them. I plant red norlands because they mature so quickly for summer use. Red Pontiac and green mountain are some favorite's for fall crops.
Danny we cut a forked limb off a tree. I made me a planting stick for my sweet potatoe slips. I worked really great. I have planted three kinds of potatoes in containers, raised beds and husband piled compost in four rows in the woods. Some of the plants are 27" tall. It is a test to see if they will make anything. Fertilized with 12 12 12 once, Red Norland potatoes. Sweet potatoes are planted in a raised bed.
I’m grateful to have any soil right now to grow food! These are crazy times were living in. Everybody should do some thing regardless of what kind of soil they have.
As you was talking i knew you had to be in Mississippi i just knew it. Im from Crystal Springs, Mississippi born and raised. I love gardening. My granny and an uncle raised me from and infant and taught me. Nice to meet yall. I love the video.
You are blessed! I'm doing some container potatoes this year. I just don't have the space to plant them any other way. I tried them last year as a afterthought and got a decent little harvest of small red potatoes like you pay a fortune for in the stores. Bite size. Great in potatoes, green beans, ham and onions! Our favorite summer and fall meal with corn bread. Wanda, looks like you're going to be doing a lot of canning!
Just finished Potato Canning 101. I would LLLLLLLLOVE TO TRY LIPPYS Seasonings!!! Hope y'all have a Wonderful Day! Thanks for the videos! Excited for the next caning video coming. Oh no! Hope the storm isn't too bad. 🙏🙏🙏
Potato seeds are in each green pod, let them dry extract the seeds from inside and plant the seeds, you won't know what kind of potatoes you will get, it's always a surprise
Wow that so strange I’ve never ever heard of potatoes growing seeds like that before! I know it definitely makes sense but I always thought you planted leftover potatoes that were left from the previous year that grew eyes in them and you cut them so there are at least two eyes on each piece and plant it and they would grow potatoes. It makes sense though that potatoes had seeds at one point in time but I had no clue about them! Just goes to show you can learn something new everyday no matter how old you are! Congratulations on an incredible harvest, Danny for your age you amaze me at how flexible you are and how you can bend down like that or sit on your knees on that hard dirt!! My body would be screaming for mercy! Just another example how gardening can be good for your health if you do it all your life eh? Seeing the potatoes spread out on the floor like that really put into perspective just how many potatoes you actually harvested!! It’s unreal seeing them and that really you grew enough for the two of you to eat off of them for the next year. When we buy 10lb bags although I think now they are only 5lb bags and we pay the same as we did for double the amount, we don’t realize just how many potatoes a couple would eat in one year. But I’m Sure that will likely just be enough for the two of you for the upcoming year. 🙏🏻🥰🇨🇦
@@vivianyerton7937 I’ll try next year, I’m in Florida and my potatoes are about ready to dig. Seems like I read it takes two years to get potatoes from seeds?
You have a much bigger operation than I do, but I've moved over to growing potatoes in large buckets. It gives me much more control and the harvest is as easy as dumping the bucket into a wheel barrow. I grow more than enough potatoes for our needs now. Also, for storage, do you dehydrate? I'm loving dehydrating as a storage solution more and more. I also freeze some.
Enjoyed the video. About the seed balls…many years ago the famous plant breeder Luther Burbank took the seed balls and planted them and most didn’t do much but one made a beautiful potato. It became the Burbank Russet. One of the most famous baking potatoes of all time. Plant them just to see what happens.
I wanted the French fingerlins but the were out of stock-I got a 4 pack variety-this was my first time planting potatoes-wish me luck! I’ve been worried about them cause we had so much rain last couple weeks-hot and sunny this week so hopefully it dries out soon enough! I noticed the brown spots on some of mine today too. Thank y’all so much for sharing your knowledge! I learn so much from y’all and so enjoy your channel!!! Be blessed!😘
What a blessing that harvest was to you, and your video was to me! I had no idea you weren’t supposed to compost the potato tops and I also had no idea there were determinate and indeterminate potatoes. We also get those berries in the PNW and I had no idea you could do anything with them I always heard they were poisonous and to just throw them out. I have much to still learn.
I would imagine Danny and Wanda could turn a sows ear into a silk purse if need be. Quality seed means nothing without being great gardeners. Hoss tools is as well a great seed source.
I'm excited for your wonderful harvest. My potatoes aren't ready yet, but they sure look pretty. This is the first year trying them in containers (city living with country dreams).
I got fingerlings from Hoss Tool. Mine are planted in containers and also the Greenstalk. But here in Indiana they were planted about three weeks ago. So will be sometime before I can report this mine did.
Good morning guys nice weather for a while hopefully that storm stays away from y’all. Worked in the garden all weekend and actually got our first little neck squash and I fried it this morning and the wife took it to work lol. Gave a great day guys
Just goes to show God supplies all your needs, you planted less but received the same. Mr Danny God sent you a wonderful help mate I like seeing that even though she is holding the camera here is her helping hand. God bless you both & thank you
Thank you for the tips and information. My husband and I enjoy your videos . Also love the high tunnels we find it very interesting. We want to get one as soon as we can . We live in the north in Pennsylvania so some things up here are alittle different. Thanks again and God bless 😊
Been a cool and wet spring. I always start my 1st crop of potatoes in last of January. I wait a month and plant 2nd crop in March. Due to cool weather it's first year for 3rd planting in mid April.

Looks like Miss Wanda is going to be busy in the canning room.
GOD bless you, your family and your homestead. Keep teaching, we're learning how to garden through your videos.
The weather has been crazy
You say potato, I say let's eat. good plan sweet potatoes in a nice already made hill.. I'm doing that this year.
Potato blight
Agreed central Texas is experiencing weather that is not normal. We usually get hot by the last week of February..... it's still cool and we are in mid may. My sugar pumpkins are simply loving it! Praise God our pumpkin harvest has exploded!!!
Didn't know about the white spots. Good info. Thanks.
Wow! I could go Forrest Gump on your potatoes! Hash browns, baked, twice baked, boiled, Hasselbeck, .... all leading to: YUMMM!!!
Red Pontiac is my good old standby. Always do good here in central Alabama.
Red Pontiac for my dads favorite
I am so happy that your potato did so well.

Please update us on your research about the potato seeds. I have some growing on my plants, too. Never seen before.
I ordered potato seeds from Wish that look like real seeds. Going to plant some and see what happens.🥔🥔
I found some of those while cleaning the garden beds in Feb, but the chickens ate them while they were cleaning the garden too. I sure will save them next time!! LOL
The good Lord smiled on your potato harvest. Amazing!
I’m close to the gulf, just now hearing about possible tropical weather from you on RUclips because I stopped watching the news. 😂 I told my husband yesterday all that rain from San Antonio to Houston felt like a tropical storm.
Found that you can lay them on clay soil and cover them with compost and they do good

Porch time today! I love Tuesdays because of porch time
It’s funny how here we have a sustainable gardening video for self-sufficiency and the first ad that pops-up is for ‘Hello Fresh’ meal delivery.
What will those people do when hard times hit and they can't ''order out''.
Drive to McDonalds probably. Haha
Amazing potato harvest! I’m growing some in buckets this year (I live in a trailer park in town so not much room) and I’m excited to see how it goes. Thx for the very valuable information, I’m listening! 😃
Thank you Danny and Wanda, always a great video and wealth of information. I know who will be busy in the new canning kitchen. God Bless all!
Thanks for the tip about not composting potato plants b/c of disease. You saved my compost pile!
So far i've only got to raise a few potatoes in pots.Clay soil.I get so excited when its time to dig.Its like unwrapping a gift
Try the Ruth Stout method.

I had two potatoe plants whits make those small seeds
That is a seed pod and was how they developed the Burbank potato with Luther Burbank He had a few potatoes from the seeds but only a few were any good

That's great! What is your zone?
Dear Wanda and Danny, you two look like treasure hunters! Indeed, you are growing treasures all over your homestead :-) Thank you for your time making your excellent videos!!!
Yes Sir you made the right decision, what some Blessings Those potatoes gave.
We will be planting more potatoes too from now on! They are so much fun to grow!
You harvesting your potatoes now and I just getting ready to put in the ground now. making my mouth water. God-bless thank you for sharing.

I got fingerlings from Hoss Tool. Mine are planted in containers and also the Greenstalk. But here in Indiana they were planted about three weeks ago. So will be sometime before I can report this mine did.
Your property and gardens is my life goals. Love watching it and learning about growing vegetables
Big blessings! Thank you for share with us and teach us!
Wow what a great harvest.

Good morning guys nice weather for a while hopefully that storm stays away from y’all. Worked in the garden all weekend and actually got our first little neck squash and I fried it this morning and the wife took it to work lol. Gave a great day guys
Good morning! Beautiful potato harvest….truly a blessing! I enjoyed tagging along and learned much, as always.
Those potatoes done awesome. Wonder if those would grow good in Missouri. I love new potatoes. Good to eat with anything. Wow !!
Yes most come from Minnesota.
Just goes to show God supplies all your needs, you planted less but received the same.
Mr Danny God sent you a wonderful help mate I like seeing that even though she is holding the camera here is her helping hand. God bless you both & thank you
Thank you for the tips and information. My husband and I enjoy your videos . Also love the high tunnels we find it very interesting. We want to get one as soon as we can . We live in the north in Pennsylvania so some things up here are alittle different. Thanks again and God bless 😊
I didn't know about white specks on Tatars , thanks for the info.
Mornin! T-shirt idea: “Don’t tell me that pond dirt won’t grow good taters” 😂 Those taters are looking good!! 🤗
I would so enjoy some rain! We are way too try for this time of year!
