Planted 5 potatoes cut in half and got like 30 potatoes back. Was afraid they rotted in may when we got like 15inches of rain in one week. But they seem to have turned out fine. Also got our last 5 onions.

Also picked about 10lbs of tomatoes.

Didnt have time to pick peppers and green beans yet. Probably do that today.

I'm going to do potatoes next season. I really want to try both in the ground and in barrels to see how well I can do.

Also I have all the cheat codes, my friend has a potato farm. I'm small time (or should I say small potatoes, pun) compared to him and my other friends.

EDIT:

Nice haul, should have said that first!
