It might be best to use a sacrificial rz. rather than a potato. Last 
year I planted about 6 of those funny purple potatoes from the 
supermarket. They didn't really do very well, and I decided that would 
be a good place for my LAI's. I set about removing every last tiny 
tuber, and enriching the soil. Now it isn't hard to guess what is 
growing beautifully with my LAI's is it? They are providing shade for 
the rz's and it looks like I'll have a good crop of both. I'll just have 
to make sure we eat the right tubers!
Cheers, Jan Clark
