2/👩🏾‍🌾🧵

Saving seed potatoes.
I gently brush the soil off my seed potatoes and store them over winter in sterile sand.

Prepping the sand involves sifting out any bits that got in it over the summer or while I was growing stuff last year, and any small rocks that came in the play sand.

(Yes I have a lot of Temptations containers because my cat is spoiled. I love him. Too bad. They told me he had lung cancer and was going to die 7 years ago. It turned out to be endogenous lipoid pneumonia, and he is still hanging in there. That is just another one of the many common items that I recycle while gardening.)

I actually thought I took a picture of the blue potatoes before I dump the sand on them, but apparently I did not. So that's a Sieglinde on a bed of sand, and once I have enough seed potatoes, I'll cover the whole thing with sand and put it in a dark dry place.
