- Gardening where you have the space!
-
- Starting Spuds in the bottom of the sack
-
- Adding more soil as the plants grow.
We found this great idea and are planning to try it! If you have a burlap bag you can, too!
By simply rolling down the sides of the bags like you would roll up your sleeves, and then planting potatoes in the bottom, you are started. As the plants grow you add more soil covering the plant stems by 1/2. Keep adding soil as the plants keep growing until they reach the top. When then are finished growing all you need to do is slit open the bag and find your burried treasure! You can plant these anywhere. We will be planting these with the kids in the” Go Green” Club at John Brown ElementarSchool in Rathdrum.
