[QUOTE="WormWiggler, post: 158131, member: 245"] Potatoes.... ugg, mine look like crap, probably a third of the hills are total brown. Dug 2 hills tonight, 7 eating size but not big and 6 piddlers. Not good, questions are many. first off, should I dig those dead hills asap or will the spuds keep for a while? second is learning from this year, could blame it on early planting in a coldish spring but suspect the hills are too close together, little over a foot. Rows are 2' apart with tomatoes on one side and cucumbers on the other, I recall some tale about keeping tomatoes and potatoes apart. I was expecting hard ground as I think that is an overall problem in my garden but those hills dug fairly easy. So watering, mostly a soaker hose between the rows, although the rows next to the tomatoes get some overland flooding. No airborn spraying after things got going. Any and all thoughts would be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
