I have tried unsuccessfully more than once to grow potatoes in my yard, but because of moles and other rodents, I was never able to see my potatoes grow. Maybe this is the best solution. What I did is I drilled wholes in the bottom of the trash can, put 6 inches of soil, cut the potato seeds in halves, planted 6 halves cut side down and added some soil on top. They recommend adding soil as the potato plant grows, and watering jus to dampen the soil. Read the article below for a step be step guide for planting, caring, and harvesting.
