All I want to see is a barrel full of big juicy potatoes from top to bottom grown in the manner we have spoken of.
Any other photos from past threads mean nothing to me as I dont see the big barrel of potatoes.

My potato towers are 3' tall x 3' square. I plant three varieties in them, German Butterball on the very bottom, Pontiac at mid level and YuKon Gold at the top.
When the Butterball vines reach the top of the tower, i fill in and plant the Pontiacs. I use a mix of compost and rotted sawdust and fill in as the plants grow.
I've had good luck doing it this way.
I've never gotten potatoes at the top of the towers by just planting one time at the bottom.
