…I planted some potatoes plants. According to those who know, it is not so safe to plant potatoes from the ones that sprout in the refrigerator as they have not been treated to resist bugs, infection and a myriad of other potentially nasty stuff. So, I bought some “seed’ potatoes to see how this works.
My motivation to grow a product that is so common and generally mighty cheap to buy, is not for the novelty, but for the health reasons. According to an article I read , Potatoes are in the top 10 offenders for vegetables that are excessively pesticide and insecticide drenched. This translates to an abundance of these chemicals and poisons directly being ingested with each tuber.
Yech.
