This is my favorite gardening channel!!🌻

Excellent video. Your cat follows you around like mine does. That says a lot about you. Thanks

Thanks for doing this video we are still watching. I can’t wait to store my potatoes properly.

"Another way to have fun in your garden", great video and lots of useful information.

So much information in only nine minutes. Thanks

I’ve bought potatoes in a #50 from a food store and I left mine in a clean garbage can with a canvas cloth on top in soil . In a cold garage but not freezing . great tips you have’s

That kitty cat is soo cute!

What kind of person would dislike a video on potatoes? LOL

Thank you for the great information.. Learning all the time. 🙏

Take a shot every time he says “potatoes” 😅 Great video!

You shared a lot of good information for storing potatoes, Thank you !

Extremely helpful! So much good information, thank you!!

I like to leave my potatoes in the ground as late as I can before the ground freezes. I store them in my insulated garage away from the door. It usually doesn't freeze. I keep them in a # 7 nursery can. Some of them are sprouting now and have shrunk some. I am in the process of building wooden boxes for next year. Thanks for helpful video.

thank you . I learn a lot about potatoes and better condition to store them .. I understand now why my potatoes sprout quickly. in the kitchen . I save them to plant them. so interesting !!

Thank You cheers from Pennsylvania Blessings 👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🎚🎚🎚

I learned so much. Thank you.

very good video! wonderful job, good tone and video quality 👍🥔

Great video. Thank you!

Omgoodness, finally, ALL my potato Q's answered, thank you soooo much

Good stuff, thanks for that. I've been using my well pit for a root cellar and had edible potatoes up until early June of the following year. And that temp is pretty consistently in the 50 to 60 F range. (South central PA) Don't get me wrong, the April/May/June potatoes have sprouts coming out of them, but if you just pick them off and only use the firm potatoes then they are actually still pretty tasty.

Such an informative video! Thank you!

great video, thanks for the tips!

Thank you for the great info., your kitty is so beautiful & precious!!! :)

Thanks for all the info

Great Informational video.

Lol, you Americans and your root cellars! :P Here in Australia, we generally don't have root cellars...indeed, we don't really build underground like that at all. (although in outback places like Coober Pedy, everyone lives underground, because it's hot, but I digress) Instead, we just store root vegetables in the fridge, usually along with the bread, especially if you live in the semi tropics, like I do. If you don't store your bread in the fridge, the entire loaf is ruined by mold within 3 days. Not even kidding. I actually find that keeping potatoes (and carrots for that matter) in the fridge, and wrapped up in a wet towel/teat towel, etc, makes them last the longest, as it keeps them crisp and firm. Without it, they tend to dry out, and go all wrinkly and rubbery. Just thought I'd share how you should keep potatoes if you're in the hot, humid tropics....because keeping them in a dark cool room just isn't enough. I've tried it. It just makes them sprout, lol! Oh...and don't keep onions anywhere near potatoes. It makes them sprout. Keep them on complete opposite sides of the room from each other if you really have to.

Great video.

Love growing !🥔

How do you keep mice away from the potatoes in your root cellar?

great video!

Thank you for the great information!

Thanks good 👍 stuff

Thx for the info. One question- if curing in dark place for a week or so such as a garage is it ok if its hot? Live in TX and hotter than normal right now. After curing, I will put in a burlap sack in pantry? Sound ok to you?

Very informative

Thank you and I think your cat is swell 😽

Thank you

I am growing potatoes in material grow bags. Once the leaves have died, can I leave the potatoes in the bags and store them that way? The earth in the bags is very dry with little or no moisture in them? thanks

Thx

Would it help to wrap my potatoes in newspaper before I put them in a crate in the dark?

no root cellar, zone 8 can I use my garage? it does get around 40 in our winter

Grew over 150 pds last yr and stored em under trailor but by apeil they were all sprouts already so put all of them baxk in the ground. Will be a good year ro have too many.

thank y0u

My basement goes down to 40 in winter. High humidity tho. Plus I have too many projects in the basement.

What about hardening off in indirect sunlight?

What other plants can you plant after the potatoes? Can you plant more potatoes? I hear that you should rotate crops.And would I ever be able to plant tomatoes or peppers there again, or would something have to be done to the soil first? One last question if I just designated one area to potatoes could I do that year after year?Thank you for your videos I find them very informative you do a very good job in teaching.

I throw my potatoes at cars as soon as I harvest them

What about no root cellars. I live in the south.

U gotta be cool! U have a tortie kitty just like my baby girl and a tux just like my dude Pud~!!!! They're like twins for my kitties!

i loved scooping out the potato and eating the skin with butter but it seems like now the skin seems thin and not as Sturdy

I have a dirt basement would that work as a root cellar?

How do you keep the mice out of them ?

I am in Australia old and unable cook much now but I love cheese potatoes etc but have had to practically stop buying them as by the time I get to them they have sprouted. I tried putting them in the fridge and stored in the dark but makes no diff. I know that the stores here have a system of keeping the fruit and veg in cold temperature which is good for their sales but they rot quick when we get them home. I never had these problems with veg in England

Anyone know if you can store potatoes on cellar door steps? I have a finished basement that is heated during the colder months so I probably wouldn't be able store them there successfully. The cellar door steps are isolated from the rest of the basement so would that work?

I'm Ron Patterson!

I made the mistake of washing my potatoes after harvesting. First time gardener here. Are they still fine for consuming after I put them away for 10- 15 days

I used to be potatoes under my house in sand

6:12 the radio interference is really interesting.

Do you have to worry about critters eating your potatoes in a breathable container?

Your wireless mic is going wonky. Frequency issues you should change the rf frequency and channel

The sugar will revert back if left out at room temperature for a bit!

soo...we are out of luck in mid Florida as to storage... only occasionally gets that chilly in the winter...

What unit of temperature are you referring to please?

No root cellar. Store in the fridge or bottom of dark pantry ok?

It’s so frustrating. My white potatoes always turn green

What's in them blue barrels next to your taters? It's not fermented grapes is it? Just kidding. Great video.

Can I just put them in the fridge? I don't do any French fries or chips.

Will mice or rats eat them?

Never store onions and garlic with other foods.!

I'm sorry. I can't concentrate on what you're saying when there is a gorgeous cat to look at !

Of course you would watch a video on growing and harvesting potatoes, if you are new to growing them. Home grown vegetables of all types are far more tasty than store bought. You shouldn't make comments on something you don't know anything about.

Started using non metric for temperature and I did not have a clue what he was talking about. Had to stop watching and go find another video that used globally understood metric units . . .
