yeah nice day for it . 4 x 50' rows = about 200 lbs of potatoes . some are for fries , some bakers , but most will be canned . It will last us all year even with giving some away .

Nice harvest David
I always thought about planting some but never have. I know some black muck farms near me sell some excellent spuds.

A pound of potatoes per foot. That’s good return.
