Have some cut and waiting now, and the first batch just went in a week ago. Usually have 'tater planting done by April 1. <br /><br />So when the rest of us will be waiting to dig 'em up, you'll be havin' fresh taters! :) <br /><br />Happy Memorial Day Weekend!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15486547371175273032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7789865586418282697.post-7905318604854257662011-05-26T13:40:36.077-04:002011-05-26T13:40:36.077-04:00OFG, glad to hear you are staying safe - crazy wea...OFG, glad to hear you are staying safe - crazy weather! I have a quick question: I'm ready to put more dirt on my taters but I would love to use straw instead (saves my back from shoveling!). I'm just afraid that I'd have little wheat plants growing everywhere. Or is it okay but the straw really doesn't touch the soil very much?
