out of the pgp

another trip to campus...another harvest...purple valley out front...red potiacs on the right and yukon gold left...the yukon golds seem to grow even closer to the surface of the soil than other varieties...even when i hill them several times a season they pop out...you can see one has "greened" from exposure to sunlight...that's solanine and it can be toxic if you eat enough..i will be cutting the green out before eating...another 2 1/2 pounds and the harvest is only about half over...some plants are still blooming...it is a bumper crop of spuds everywhere this season...hope yours are good too.
