Bizz... Lavendula told u Rite...))) Put all the good Stuff...below...where u intend to place a potato seed...because...thats where...it will feed itself. A potato sorta likes neutral to slightly acidic dirt below it, and it dont mind one bit...good acidic leaf material, rotting organic matter, above it's placement. It will give...all u can throw at it...back...in the way of tilth and loose OM. Martin...taught me...the Wonderful lesson...of Where...to put...it's Food at...))) Tilth, above the seed, food below it...an sit back an watch somethin Pretty give back to ya...))) Best Wishes...)))

A few more ideas, as i's thinkin...Study...prior to cutting...a seed potato. Dont start the Job, in a hurry. Look at each piece, that you intend to cut. Ponder...how to be...the least intrusive, with a cut. And get u a scale out an learn what a 2 ounce piece is. Eyes go up, cuts go down, but try an ponder how to get a 2 ounce piece w/one cut, an have at least 2 eyes on top.


Hopin you get some Spuds that taste like Mother Earth...)))
