Potatoes v2

So my 2nd potato plant was ready for harvesting, 5 weeks later than the 1st plant, and yielded 13 ounces of baby potatoes.

And boy, what beauties they are! There are still several super tiny potatoes but the larger ones are almost small russet sized!

My full harvest from this plant:


And one of the larger potatoes in my hand for scale:


Lesson learned: keep the plants alive for as long as possible for full sized potatoes. I still have one plant left, a red potato I planted in June: I'm looking forward to seeing how my red potatoes fare in a couple months.

Real world savings? 13 oz potatoes for $0.00.
