There's nothing like the taste of fresh, home-grown organic potatoes and they're so easy to grow. They're also packed with nutrients , a great source of vitamin C, B6, and Potassium to name just a few.  So, why not try and grow these resourceful vegetables?

Potatoes are one of the most common and important food sources on the planet, and they contain a wealth of health benefits that make them all the more essential as a staple dietary item for much of the world’s population. These health benefits include their ability to improve digestion, reduce cholesterol levels, boost heart health, protect from polyps, prevent cancer, and manage diabetes. They strengthen the immune system, reduce signs of aging, protect the skin, increase circulation, reduce blood pressure, maintain fluid balance, reduce insomnia, and aid in eye care.
If you don't have big space for planting potatoes, or you don't have a garden. However, all you need is a sunny space to grow, a steady supply of water, some plastic bags or containers and seed potatoes!

After buying your seed potatoes, set them in a cool, dry and bright position to allow them to start sprouting (this process is called chitting). You have to start chitting your potatoes 6 weeks before you plan to plant them.

As potatoes are aggressively rooting plants,  i found that they will produce the best crop when planted in a light, loose and well-drained soil...Keep reading How to Grow Organic Potatoes
