I bought about 6 or 8 "seed Potato " today, along with a few other cold weather crops. Trouble is I never tried growing potato's . How do I prep them for planting, I picked potatos that seem to have a lot of eyes on them. I haven't done anything with them yet. should I wash them first or just leave them? Do I need to do anything to get them started sprouting or just bury the taters, I know I'm suppose to cut them into "chunks" about golf ball size if I recollect right. Will they grow down or more outward and up? I have a row about 20 feet long ready for them, I grew beans on that row last year and it's tilled about 1 foot deep now with lots of compost in it.
I would like to get them in the ground by the end of next weekend (Valentines Day)
