Kristian,
I was wondering how much shade that ole pecan is casting over little ole spud
plant.
Spuds like full sun, high phosphate nutrient, compost, somewhat dry between
deep waterings and weeding. They also like to be hilledas the plant grows
taller. Then reduce water at harvest month. Enjoy......Jim
