Project Phoenix Forums Project Phoenix Plant the Moon Challenge Potatoes are EXPENSIVE

We may have a problem...I'm trying to acquire our seed potatoes and have run into two problems. One, they're more expensive than I anticipated, and two, they aren't available in our area. I think we're going to have to modify our experiment to use different types of plants OR to get one batch of potatoes and try out different soil mixtures.

I'm leaning toward us trying different types of seeds, and if we can score some seed potatoes, then we just make potatoes one of our choices.

What do you guys think?

If we can't get a larger amount of seed for potatoes we should try using seeds. That the only logic thing to do unless we get the seeds.

So far, I have these things in the cart:
- bag of composted cow manure
- bag of vermiculite
- bag of perlite
- bag of peat moss
- 10 green pots
- 10 blue pots

Does anyone have any flower pots they could donate or loan us? Just the pots add up to $60!

I have a bunch of 2 liter bottles at home...we could cut them up and make our own pots. That would save us money that we could use for seeds.

I was able to acquire potatoes!
