Great videos! Thank you!!

Do you fertalize between hilling?

When you harvest all at once, how do you preserve the potatoes for future consumption?

Love these videos

Hi. I wish you showed how to cover woth soil. When you said you covered 2/3rds of the plant, did you bury stems and leavs too or cur those off?

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

My pleasure.

I was very successful following your directions step by step.. Thank you.

Why are potatoes planted at the bottom of the pot? When I planted mine I planted mine in the middle and a bit more towards the top … my potatoes all grew under the seed potato so planting it more towards the top gave more room for the potatoes to grow under the seed potato … wondering why the green sprouting tops are supposed to be buried as much as possible ?

Do you have trouble with critters eating your potatoes or potato greens? If so, how do you prevent this?

have a blessed day from Australia thank you for taching me gtow my own food x

Loved it. Learned lot

Hi! Love your videos! When you are covering 2/3rds each way as the plant emerges (before it reaches the top), are you also covering the new growth and then waiting for the green leaves to emerge? How long does that take approximately? Thanks!

Good content

how often do you water them?

Do you use the same soil that you use for the sweet potatoes?

Thx

I’m a big fan but I have to wonder, where do you get your funding? $9 for a small bale of straw?

thank you sir for this valuble info

How often do you water them?

Hello
Do you guys buy potato seeds or make them yourself? I feel like I will need to buy my potato seeds but no clue where

Thank you..I'm going to try. I just started watching your vids. Did I see you in a video wearing a SRV shirt? lol.

will 30 lbs bucket is better or no...

So do you cover the leaves? That just doesn't seem right but I've never grown potatoes. I'm getting ready to plant some.

Love it!

if you have potatoes in frig that sprouted can they grow

No additional fertilizer?

Watched 10 videos not a single person actually show how to plant the seed?

I do not believe this is the way you have shown, how to grow potatoes in containers, recently?

Well I planted my sprouts on the 12th of April but they still have yet to emerge. But at least now I know what they look like

You are a gifted instructor, Hollis. Thank you for the detailed information.

Lord bless you all! It is a blessing to know there are people who love the Lord Jesus all over this country still! Thank you for sharing your knowledge! Gave me ideas for container gardening since I always ground plant!

In this video, and the previous one (starter vid), you didn't put bone meal in top like you did the "other" 5 gallon potato video ... So do you need it, or was it missed, or did I miss it? Just wondering if you used it in these bigger containers. Thanks 😊

Wow,, you two have a Beautiful Hardy Garden,, Im going to try potatoes for the first time.. God Bless you Both and Thank you for sharing your Knowledge...

I really miss living in FL!
I’m in the desert 🌵
I’ve learned a lot from your videos!
We have to pump water from our creek to water so we have a different process to conserve water. We are at 6900 ft elevation so we have a very short growing season, so we have green houses to maximize our season.
My doggies watch with me & they bark when they hear your dog!
Very relaxing! Time together!
God’s blessings !!

Thank you your videos are very good. You get to the point and leave out all the confusion that others tend to do. Thank you for being direct and to the point.

The soil you added while filming looks different from the soil used when they were planted. Is this a different mixture?

Could you describe how to prepare the buckets such as number and size of drain holes. Any layer of small gravel on bottom.?

Hi, I appreciate your videos. I did want to note that I used the straw you recommended and now I have Johnson grass growing in my potato garden… should I have done something different to the straw before laying it down?

Hollis & Nancy, I'm planting my potatoes today. When they grow above the soil level....do I cover it completely with soil? Or do I leave the leaves exposed?
I hope you'll be able to answer.
Thank you.

Do they need much frequent watering? Thank you, these times realizing times are comimg quick we've gotta self sustain

Where did you get the containers and how big are they?

Hello! I’ve successfully grown potatoes outside in my garden. I really want to try this. Less weeding. And more garden space for other things. I have a couple questions please. We are in ND. Short growing season. I have spuds in my basement that I grew last year. Many are getting sprouts. If it was nice out I could plant them outside. I have big buckets like this from cow licks. Seems the perfect size. Can I try to plant them now indoors in a south facing big sunny window. And then move the pail outside when it’s nice enough in May I am thinking just two buckets. So I’d have some earlier potatoes than I usually do. And then when nice enough I’ll do more plants outside in pots and the ground. Also we have bunnies. In your other video you used cow manure fertilizer. But I have tons of bunny berries I hear are good for fertilizer. So I’m curious if I can mix potting soil with the bunny berries.
And then we put up here for our cows so could I just use some of that instead of buying the mulch or the straw that you’re using

When do you start planting potatoes 🥔. Iam new to this and have watched your videos.I love them and love how you pray and give thanks to Father God for all we are given . Than you so much

Awesome starting a garden in SW Florida This is great help. God Bless!

Amen
