potatao project 2014 IV

i cut two purple valley and one ollala potato ( purple valley left, ollala right top photo ) to callus them yesterday morning as part of the over-winter project to produce seed potatoes for next spring...so when i got home from campus this evening i planted them in containers ( with drainage holes ) on the south side of the house...two purple valley in each of the larger containers and one ollala each in smaller ones...as the container grown potatoes die back more containers will open up for a variety of spuds...we plan a diverse population come spring.
