check out this article on the Kitchen Gardening website:
http://www.taunton.com/kg/features/growing/9spuds.htm-the gentleman grows
potatoes in a whiskey barrel- five seed potatoes and he states he gets 100
POUNDS per barrel, per harvest!
This I am definitely trying this year(though I am scouting low cost
alternatives to the yuppie-priced whiskey barrel).
Rachel (on the border between zone 6 and 5 with 11/2' of snow left on the
ground but have already ordered thos seed potatoes)
