Have you ever experimented with closing the holes around each potato ‘seedling’ once they have devoloped stems?
I noticed that the outer potatoes have a green tinge to them; and that you wisely peel all your potatoes.
Did you know that much nutrition is in the peels; but that any green coloration in the peel is poisonous?
Great effort! Reply appreciated! (Be sure to examine plants at night to remove slugs!)
yes thanks for your opinion, i use egg shells to prevent snails, and don’t eat potatoes when the shells are green
Thanks for your comments and advise it will help us all
The amount of solanine is pretty low, in order to just get sick, a 200 pound person would have to eat about 2 pounds of very green, as in, green all over, potatoes.
@DIY Garden Ideas Why do you roll your potatoes in white cement? Is the white cement hazardous to the soil and new potatoes?
@DIY Garden Ideas I was gonna totally suggest crushed egg shells for slugs !! 🐌 🥚
Growing any food is such a great thing to do so credit to you. A few things I did notice, the harvesting yield looked pretty small compared to say growing 2 potatoes in a 30litre bucket. On Average I get around 5lb of potatoes per 30 litre bucket. I would say compared to other Youtube Gardeners, mine is not that impressive but still seems more than what they are getting in this video. One idea from this video I do like is the pop bottle down the middle of the growing medium. So often during the heat of summer I find it difficult to keep potato buckets well watered all the way through, and they often dry out and reduce yields. Using the pop bottle method, you can easily water without getting the plants wet (reducing the chances of blight and disease) and deliver any feed you wish to add. I think this method could also be used for Tomatoes. I feel an experiment coming on, growing with and without the bottles. Thank you for making the video and sharing it. By sharing your experiences we can all grow (no pun intended) and improve from each other :o)
Your comment is helpful🙏
yes sir, we will learn from each other’s experience
@Helen Oni Thanks
Your method very good
@Helen Oni Thats’ right 😘
Интересный опыт. Но лучше насыпать половину земли, посадить внутри мешка 3-4 картошки и подсыпать постепенно землю сверху. Тогда картошки будут расти на побегах под землей. Будет урожай больше, чем вашим методом. Бутылку можно поставить так же в середине и постепенно вокруг нее насыпать землю.
Я много раз пытался заставить картщшки расти слоями, добавляя больше почвы. Увы, безуспешно. Только один слой. Что я делаю не так?
@evets1709 возможно, почва не подходит. Или не угадали с поливом.
@Julia Taranchuk большое спасибо ))) вы не знаете, есть разные виды картошек? Некоторые, может быть, делают один слой, а другие делают более одного слоя? Извини много ошибокю Я учу русский но всё ещё делаю много ошибок ))) я стар и быстро завываю
@evets1709 есть много сортов картофеля. Сами клубни вырастают на столонах, побегах под! землёй. А на видео побеги сразу на свету, только некоторые внутри пакета в земле. Картошка похожа на томаты по условиям вырашивания. Тепло, удобрения, поливы, просто урожай в земле.
@evets1709 урожайность зависит от сорта, но принцип выращивания одинаковый. Еще ей нужны слабокислые или нейтральные почвы, не щелочные.
I would love to try your idea! I have limited space to plant in the ground. This method seems much compact and easier to harvest as well. I have back yard birds that we buy great big bags of food for in the cold months. I’m going to try using some of those empty bags to grow my potatoes! Thanks for sharing! ❤️
Why don’t you use a bird net to plant potatoes in the backyard?
Do not try this idea. this video is completely fake
@thehorrorification I agree, this is fake as shown. He puts the eyes outwards so it will not work. I’ve been growing potatoes for over 20 years in bags and out and I can tell you that the eyes need to be in the dirt not pointing away from it into the air.
Diana, you may want to explore other methods as well. This does seem like a space-saving solution, but the total harvest from a single bag wasn’t much more than what a single healthy plant in soil would do. Also, this method seems to allow light to reach the tubers inside the bag, which turns them green and inedible. That is probably why the total harvest from that bag seemed low.
It’s always great to experiment with different methods, but if you want a proven method for large harvests, you may want to look at other ideas as well. Personally I would recommend watching Charles Dowding. He is a no-dig gardener who gets great results on relative small patches.
@DIY Garden Ideas bird netting is too flimsy for such a use.
This man knows the importance of sharing ideas with his whole heart,no hidden tricks, thanks
Thank my friend. help me share this video
this video is entirely fake.
@thehorrorification no. It’s real
@DIY Garden Ideas No, it is fake. Those potato plants are nowhere near old enough to produce a crop. The plants have been under watered and look like they have been grown in the shade. The plants are full of brown, dead leaves from under watering and possibly a disease problem. Potatoes should have large, wide leaves. Every leaf on display is small and narrow. The stems are very long and sparse in leaves, suggesting they have been grown in heavy shade.
The only actual potatoes that have been grown in those bags are the tiny ones you remove from around the seed potato at 8:08. At one point you say that you are showing the growth after 30 days and then harvest the spuds without any more growth taking place. No potato plant can produce a crop after 30 days. The minimum growth period for a harvest is 90-100 days.
You can obviously grow other veg well from looking at your other videos but, I’m guessing it is too warm where you live for potatoes to grow well.
@DIY Garden Ideas I don’t have an opinion on whether it’s ‘fake’ or not, looks real to me but what I noticed is you had GREEN potatoes as well. How many did you lose because they were ‘Green’? Also, from those 3 big bags you didn’t seem to get very many at all in the end. What happened to the ‘Clipped’ bag?

The loose mixed bedding you made, is great for growing potatoes and you keep their feet demp but not soaked. They like drainage. They drink more throughout the leaf structure, than the root system.
So, water less later just like growing sweet potatoes?
The initial soil mixing makes an important contribution to providing nutrients as well as keeping the roots moist, draining well and avoiding waterlogging.
👍👍👍
I’m impressed by the amounts of potatoes you got with so few green tops growing them and how detached the bigger ones were from roors and stem. Almost unbelievable.
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
Это обман . Видно что картошка не молодая и добавили из магазина )))
Столько возни, а урожай так себе. Я дедовским способом, тоже самое разу
Almost 😂😂😂
It seems in this time of “food scarcity coincidences” it’s a good idea for us to share gardening knowledge with each other, thank you so much for this video keep up the good work.
Absolutely agree…read an article that our major grocery chains in the province I am in are raising praises on food since no one will stop them…a member of the board was bragging about it publicly.
About two months ago nestle corporation did an article saying they were going to raise their prices and expected to see their competors do the same…
I am very motivated this year to garden despite still needing a surgery.

Смотри на перемотке
Ki ekiriwo
I think the same number planted a little further apart and in a manner where any potatoes that breach the surface can be covered (this is important to keep them from greening and becoming inedible) would actually produce more. If space is limited this system would be a decent choice…but if space permits, spread them out some and get better yields.
Для Марсианина вполне подходящий способ.😄

@жизнь It is possible, but I wouldn’t recommend it unless you have a strong stomach…something most Americans lack LOL
@🇷🇺 Крым – Россия Sure, but I wasn’t offering advice to any Martians.
Space to grow. Same thing happens when I “bulk up” the soil in my bins with shredded newsprint. I’ve had some Yukon Gold plants grow in excess of 100 spuds, and that was in soil that was roughly 60% shredded paper. Basically, in my opinion, the trick is to prevent the soil from compacting.
👍👍👍
Your knowledge took a long time to acquire, with a lot of trial and error. I sincerely thank you for your generosity in sharing your growing knowledge it’s priceless to us all. It’s good to see you looking better
👍👍
Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m glad you find my videos helpful and valuable. It’s always rewarding to see my knowledge and experiences resonate with others. Keep watching and learning!
I appreciate the reuse of items that would’ve otherwise gone into a landfill. The tires being used as little raised beds was neat. Thanks for sharing.
👍👍
Thank you for appreciating the idea of reusing items that would otherwise end up in the trash! It’s important to find creative ways to reduce waste and make the most of what we have.
Very innovative if space is at a premium. I don’t see that he is getting any more from a plant than usual – it’s just that he has a lot of plants concentrated in each bag. Still, very productive.
👍👍👍
Thank you for this beautiful video 😊, but I have some concerns please🙏🏻
1. Are the plastic boxes placed in the middle of the bags used for watering? If so, how often?
2. Should the bags be left in the rain or in a protected area such as the shed?
Thanks
Water every couple days during hot dry spells, once a week when it’s overcast, not at all during the rainy season. Leave the bags exposed to the sun and the rain.
@@mb19842002 Ok, thank you so much
👍👍
I think the potash helps tuber development, for those not seeing a reason
Thank you for your kind words! I’m glad you found the video helpful. To answer your questions, the plastic boxes in the middle of the bags are indeed used for watering the potatoes. It’s recommended to water them once every few days, depending on the weather. As for the bags, it’s best to keep them in a protected area like a warehouse or shed to avoid damage from heavy rain or extreme weather conditions.
Nothing more satisfying than home grown food ❤
Це так і є!)
8:58 if you intend to use potatoes immediately, fine, wash them. If you intend to store potatoes, DO NOT wash them. Only was them when you are ready to use them. Let them dry (good airflow and no sunlight) for a few days to set the skins before sacking them up for storage. If you wash them immediately, they will rot much faster.
Мойте спокойно, все сохраняется, главное это подполье и не тёплая температура
I’ve grown potatoes in the ground and in raised beds. Both did better than expected. Think I’ll give this a try with recycled chicken feed bags. I’ll have to ask the neighbors to save me some pop bottles though, we down drink much ourselves.
Sir you tried this one,
Thank you for taking us through this process! That was wonderful.
Looks like we’ve unlocked the secret to abundant potatoes! Time to start our own potato empire.
