i used a variety of potatoes, and pretty much straight compost + straw in my tower. *shrug*

i got my victory seed & southern exposure catalogs within the last few days. yikes! i could spend hours in the bathroom perusing and circling.

[3lilbubs]

hm, have you poked around in there to see if maybe they were done?

[joyjoy]

no. i didn't think it had been long enough! i have a friend coming over tomorrow. i'll enlist her to help me. (i'm currently 26w pregnant, and have hyperemesis. this is why i'm not doing much on my own these days.)

[3lilbubs]

How long were they in the tower? Early potatoes would be ready in a couple mos, late potatoes about 3-4.

I snatch up gardening mags out of the recycle bins at the po just to window shop, lol. I prob have 20, with a bunch of chicken one, next to the couch. All big dreams, lol.
