Amo; So much has been posted about stunt growth, rot, lack of moisture, to wet etc, Although the planting season has much to do with growing season, as does the different soil conditions for various states, Different state locations and growers methods. I'm sure Idaho is somewhat different then Wisconsin, Up Here, there were 3 different growers.Nuto, Wes-Lawn, Lapacinski( who stopped farming potatoes, now were down to just two. If folks are wondering how to grow spuds, ASK THE LOCAL BIG POTATO GROWERS who farm several Ks acres. They Know Potatoes. Don't waste time, seed, fertilizer energy with "MY GREAT GREAT GREAT GRAND DAD GREW 1 acre so he was the expert yatta yatta yatta. Lapacinski grew great potatoes bought by ORIDA every year. Rotated fields every year up until government intervention,several THOUSAND ACRES WERE INVOLVED in his operation,so if I needed information on growing potatoes I would ask those folks who are expert farmers on raising spud. LOOK TO YOUR LOCAL POTATO FARMER FOR ANSWERS and don't fool with great great great great grandads formulas for success.The big growers are kind enough to give you the correct information. JMHO. LOU
