I had already ordered our seed potatoes when I realized that we would be doing a smaller scale veggie garden (in the future herb garden beds) this year. 5lbs of russian banana (absolutely the tastiest and waxiest textured potato ever) is a lot more than we have room for in there. But people grow potatoes in all kinds of containers, right? So I scrounged through the junk on the property for old nursery pots and compost bins, and viola! It's not pretty, but I'm fairly sure it will grow potatoes just fine. Right now the seed potatoes are covered with a layer of rotted straw, and I'll continue to bury them with whatever we have handy as they grow. Updates to follow.
