Tattie Harvest I
Despite the rain today, I ventured out into the garden to get some
potatoes to go with tonight's stew. The little pot (my control group)
only yielded three small potatoes, so I started digging in the box.
To my delight, we have achieved 6 small, 10 tiny, and 13 minuscule in
our first harvest! I dug up the first layer of two plants, so
presuming there are still more undisturbed under there, we might have
five or six more harvests of the same size over the next few months!
half of them went yellow and wilted in the rain, and the remainder
were being slowly but thoroughly eaten by invisible bugs. I smoothed
the soil back over the part I had disturbed and with any luck, my
little potatoes will get a chance to grow a bit bigger before I make
them into mash.
