I don't think I ever mentioned that a few weeks ago I finally planted all those potatoes that were sprouting in the box on the kitchen floor. The problem is, the potato "patch" isn't very photogenic... so I can't bear to make you look at it. :) I used an area I'd already dug up when I was experimenting with bed sizes; this bed is too wide to reach into the middle without walking (or laying) on the cultivated soil, which is absurd. Trial and error, folks. So, we've been mulching it with cut grass in hopes of keeping the weeds to a minimum. It's been working pretty well so far, and finally (just before I was starting to panic) a few little leaves are starting to unfurl through the dry grass.
