For those who don’t know, the Ruth stout method is just laying your seed potatoes on the ground of covering with straw or hay.

I did not water these, and once the plants died back I just raked away the straw and these potatoes were laying on top of the soil, or about an inch deep.

They are tiny because I ended up planting them later than I should have and the heat was too much for them in the middle of summer.

Overall it was a great trial run and I plan to give it another go next year.
