Holy Toledo we made a Potato, part Two!

And here it is, the little potato plant that could!

If you remember my first potato post, these guys were planted kind of as an afterthought because I thought I had killed the seed potatoes. But somehow, some way they pulled through and made this little plant! Now it is dying, so it is time to dig up the tubers underneath and have some 'taters!

I pulled the plants and the potatoes came right out with the roots. They are a nice red color, but they do have little white splotches on them that I'm not sure about...

One of the potatoes already has a little growth popping out of it. I'll just cut that part off before I cook them, and use it as a seed potato. I'm not sure if it will affect the taste though!
