No, never tried Kennebec. But, I surely will!I only grew potatoes once, and it was a terrible fail. I bought some potato seeds(small potatoes) from Gurney's. Planted them in a very large cardboard box. (Found this great idea over the net-did not work for me) The spring, and summer was full of rain, plus. I do not think I had enough drain holes on the box. Needless to say they sprouted, but soon looked like lace, from bug damage, and when the plant had died down, it may have been maybe one tiny potato. I haven't grown any since that time. But, I have been truly inspired to jump right on it, next season. Thank you very much Wendy, and FilmNet!
