About 10 weeks ago I got some 'Shop bought' potatoes that I intended to grow rather than eat. Some of the potatoes were rested in compost to 'quick start' the chitting process the others were stored in the fridge. This linked video shows how I did that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jqc5Y... The potato growing in the 3" pot in this video will shortly be transplanted into a 10" pot to 'grow on'. When that potato is finally harvested in a few months time I will revitalise and re use the compost to plant a 'Fridge Potato' that will give me a second crop from that same pot in the same growing season. Not convinced? Check out last years results. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihqjW... This is a FREE subscription channel.
