    Potato Growing 2026

    Grass clippings worked well for me in containers, just add them in thin layers or they turn into a slimy mess. Bit of shredded cardboard mixed in helps too.

    Visiting Gardens

    The annual pass thing is spot on. I started doing that with a local garden and it completely changed how I think about winter planting. You notice stuff you'd never catch on a single visit.
