how do you layer potatoes for growing
To get started, a single layer of seed potatoes are planted, a few inches of compost and rice straw is added and then as the vines grow taller, they are topped off with more rice straw for the tubers to grow in (no more soil is added).oosen the soil of the planting area, place your potatoes on top, cover with 4â³ to 6â³ of straw. As the plants grow, add more straw. For harvesting, just push the straw aside, take what you want and put the straw back.
