RE: Potato Harvest 2024 🥔

in #gardenlast year

It's nice to eat potatoes that you grew yourself. And probably potatoes in organic food stores are now 5-10 euros per kilogram.

Sort:  

If I calculate my hours... it's probably not worth the hassle...

Also, I have no good storage for these, so I have to give them away / share them with others. They last until January at best.

The industrial farmers around me produce good potatos, store and sell them at fair prices and their machines just make things so much more efficient...

It's just that potatos are the easiest to grow here, usually require very little work.
It's a reliable crop. That's why I grow it.

In addition to my own potatoes, I buy farm potatoes in the winter. The only bad thing is that farmers use herbicides that our bodies accumulate.
