Funny how when you plant a plant that has been grown here for several hundred years, they grow like a plant that was meant to be here. We didn't have much luck with our warba potatoes at our last place. It was very dry and arid even though it wasn't far from where we are now. We maybe got six potatoes that year. It was depressing.

Same technique, same brand of local potting mix, but entirely different results with the Haida potatoes. They seem so happy with our seriously unpredictable weather and just keep getting bigger and bigger. We've done one lift of soil already this week but they have grown another six inches this week. I will do another lift of straw and soil as soon as I can. Cannot wait to try them!
