Almost all of us are aware of the fact that growing potatoes can be quite a pickle. They usually require a large amount of space and special attention has to be given to prevent weeds from growing in whatever limited garden space that you may have.
You will be surprised to know that now you can grow 100 lbs. of potatoes in about 4 feet. To start off; make a box using wooden square sections measuring 4’ by 4’ using six 2-inch wide boards which are approximately 8 feet long, one 2-inch y 2-inch board which approximately 12 feet long and ninety six 2-1/2 inch wood screws.
Plant potatoes inside the box, insert the first row of boards and keep on adding dirt or mulch as the plant grows. When the vines are almost 12 inches above the soil, it’s time to add the other board and fill with dirt. Make sure you don’t cover more than one-third of the plant. Repeat this procedure until the box is completed.
The Potatoes are planted in one bottom layer, the sides are boarded up and dirt is added. Before adding the new layer, one has to wait for the plant to grow before adding top layers. Once you have the top layers growing, you can remove the boards on the lower layers to dig out any potatoes that are ready for harvesting now. After you have taken out the ones you needed, you can fill the dirt back and board them up. As the layers are ready for harvesting, you move up and dig them out as necessary.
Experimentation has shown that the potatoes at the lower layers can be funnily shaped whereas higher up the layer, the result is much better. The biggest advantage of growing potatoes this way is that the weeding job is reduced drastically and you don’t need a lot of land as well.
