Potato Harvest 2009


Thought I would post a couple of photos of the potato patch this last summer and the fall harvest. This is a little family project we have had the last couple of years. It continues to get larger every year. There were sixteen rows. We had Red Norland, Red Pontiac, and Russets. In all we harvested about seven hundred pounds. They did real well this year. The Pontiac's have some scabbing be cause the soil is a little to hot. It doesn't look good but does not effect the potato other than the skin. The insides are beautiful and white. They are good eating. That's what counts. The Norland, and Russets don't seem to mind the hot soil. AH
