Checking in from Alabama where last winter was good growing but this winter
is behaving like winter.
We optimistically planted miniature potatoes in our square foot beds in
October.  I peeked last week and found 2.  One was a little smaller than a
green pea and the other was a little larger.  I only knew I was holding a
potato because they smelled like potatoes.  I knew they would be miniature,
but did expect a bit more.  Does anybody have experience with potatoes in
zone 7 type weather.  They sprouted and were growing nicely, then we had a
freeze in December.  Actually, several freezes.  I thought it was okay to
plant potatoes in the fall around here.  Maybe not?!  Will they sprout again
in spring and keep going?
