Finally got the potatoes planted

Rodney Middleton · Apr 3, 2013

I finally got my potatoes planted today , at least 5 weeks late. Most of the past many years I planted the third or forth week of Feburary. It has been way too wet to even get in the garden to do anything. But today was my day I used the John Deere 40 standard to lay off the rows so I could plant the Kennibacs and Pontiacs. As I write this the temperature on Lookout Mountian (north west Ga.) is 50 degrees it should a little warmer than that and its very cloudy. Have a nice day . Rodney

The Red , you probally were at what we call the Point which is about 18 Miles from where my wife and me live. Lookout Mountian goes approxamitely 90 miles from the Tennesee River to Gadsen Ala. Rodney

We might get ours planted this week, but as cool as the weather has been, they're not going to grow anyway.
