Do you re-use the soil?
@@ri7589 Yes czcams.com/video/rRCTBpK9AUU/video.html
Some fine large pototoes! What fertilizer and measurements do you use?
I love that you’re training future gardeners and getting the young ones involved, great to see 🧡
It warms my heart to see a variety of people from various backgrounds and religions here not commenting negatively. This goes to show the affect our brother Monti with his wicked Strong Northern accent is having on the peeps.
Lol is it that strong? 😂😂😂
Our actions are the best dawah
Agreed. I am as white as the driven snow and born and bred here. But my even my accent isn't as northern as that. Keep the videos up mate, I really enjoy watching young children (and adults) enjoy the garden and i enjoy learning from you too. Happy days!
I thought the comments would be turned off. But I’m as pleased as you are that bigots didn’t storm him. Keep growing brothers and sisters.
I came to see when to harvest my potatoes, I don't understand what faith or background has to do with it. If people want to equate their issues over certain faiths they should leave veg out of it. Just saying...
Would you say the same thing to a Christian?? I wonder 🤔
My kid put a potato in the ground to see what would happen. It developed flowers but isn’t dying back yet. I didn’t know you can grow them in a pot like that. I got so excited when you were uncovering the potatoes.
Sounds like a healthy plant, give it time. Potato harvests are like treasure hunts lol
How lovely ❤
That's how I start my potatoes every year. I put them in a concrete container to seal in the heat and just put full potatoes that have grown eyes ❤
All races, all religions, one human race. I love our gardening community.
Shut up
…….i love potatoes
i jus like potatoes
LOOK at the little ones loving the digging with their little gloves.
So cute! ♥️
New to your channel. I just planted my potatoes in 50lb rice/ dog food bags I used a paper puncher for holes at the bottom, as they grew I added more dirt. when I harvest them
i will reuse the dirt. They flowered 2 weeks ago I cant wait to see how they did!
love the channel
How did they do?
@MrAlistar99 Excellent! I also found out that IAMS dog food bags are food grade! So I've collected many all winter, and they are prepped to plant my first set. Each month, I will plant 4 bags. So my last harvest will be October. Last year, i got around 200 lbs of potatoes. In December, I intentionally let around 30 potatoes go crazy all set to plant these.
Happy planting 😊
Very informative! I have only 5 plants out in the garden, wanted to try my hand at potato this year. I really know so little and had no idea about the flowering and so forth. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Simple to follow cheers as I wasn't sure when to harvest
This was perfectly helpful for where my potatoes are at. You’ve helped my family make chips tonight!
Great information, Monty. We have definitely been guilty of harvesting too early. This will help us to get larger tubers.
Take care and stay safe,
Rob
Thanks Rob, sometimes the small potatoes are perfect for roasting
Watching your videos make me wanna grow stuff
Nice, have you got anything growing at the moment
@@MyFamilyGarden I don't even know where to start so when I watch your videos I feel like you're doing it for me as well ha
Dont let the police catch u lol
Beautiful and timely video!
I'm growing my first ever potatoes this summer in pots just like yours and was beginning to wonder how to know when to harvest.
Thank you, brother.
I'm a new subscriber here on July 25, 2021.
😎👍🏼
This was very helpful, thank you. I love the way your incorporated the kids. Gardening is such a healthy activity for children.
Really helpful thank you brother, subscribed
Awesome thank you for the support, much appreciated
Me too! ☺
Thank you for your advice, I’m learning so I can plant some as well. Also, I love how you blessed your plant as you were ready to harvest.
Great to see your kids getting involved too. My kids love their gardening although my daughter is a bit too keen about harvesting the Strawberries as the rest of the family don't see many.
the kids just did their strawberry harvesting video
So good to see you share this experience with your kids. I’m growing in bags this year for the first time. There are some in the ground too. A freshly dug potato tastes great and has a wonderful texture.
I grow my main crop in woodchips. You're right the crisp sound that a a fresh potato makes when you cut it just can't be replicated with shop bought spuds
@@MyFamilyGarden I took up whittling recently and use a power planer. It makes for for fine, clean shavings. I like your two tier method. I may try that next year.
This was really helpful. Thank you. I usually plant potatoes in pots but its been a bit hit and miss if i harvest them correctly!! This year, as well as the buckets, i have made a veggie plot where i used to keep hens so am hoping for a bumper spud crop🤞. I see you use red potatoes. Do you have any preference for which variry you grow? And is that based on taste, storage etc? Also do you buy seed potatoes or do you save your own from your harvest? Sorry for all the questions, i just like your style of gardening😁. Also its great that you get your kids so involved. I love to see knowledge being passed through the generations.. happy growing!
I like your yard! It's a real backyard that the whole family can enjoy. And I like your calm demeanor and way of explaining how you do things. Greetings from Ontario Canada!
This was straight to the point thank you !!! I learned a lot and really answers everything I needed to kw👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽💕💕
Love it. I've just got my hands on some very cheap 30L pots & intend to grow spuds this season using your method. Well almost... Shop bought multi-purpose compost minus the wood chips. I reckon I should do alright. Thanks for the video. Cheers 👍🏽
That accent and the hints are great.
I started a garden this springvand planted potatoes and a wide variety of fruits and vegetables. I'm looking forward to hearing more gardening tips.
Love the channel, from the Republic of Ireland 🇮🇪 👍
Thanks Mike, appreciated
Great information regarding harvesting tattie's! This is my first attempt growing them in black bin bags! Cheers mate!
Great watching the little ones enjoying their gardening .
You sir are awesome at explaining things. Great video
You explained it way better then anyone else hands down!!!!!!! New sub you guys are the best and have the cutest family
Ohhh I've noticed if I bury my schools just a tad under the soil I have potatoes way sooner so if I have to harvest 2 weeks apart I plant my others a bit deeper that works for me .
Thankyou for the clear and concise advise, im still waiting on mine to flower but will let them grow on a little. Cheers
Wow that was impressive I am going to try potatoes in buckets next spring...getting ready now to watch how you did it...it will be my first time! thanks for sharing! All the best from NY, USA!
They're quite good for getting nice clean potatoes without having to dig, good luck with it
Salaam! And thank you for the awesome vid. I just got into gardening this past year during the pandemic and this is a great way to learn
Loving these videos. Keep them up man, keeping me inspired to grow my own. Put in three raised beds for this season. Greenhouse planned for next year.
Great tips, thank you. Your garden looks wonderful!
Thank you!! Just noticed mine had flowers and now know when to empty the container (rather big one) out for harvest.
✌️❤️💯
I’m so excited. I planted potatoes in a tub on my balcony this year. And I can’t wait to see what we get.
thank you, this video is a incredibly detailed and comprehensive guide!
Thanks for the advice mate! I'm growing some in containers, for the first time (in Regina, SK, Canada), and this was helpful.
Brilliant, glad it helped
Very informative, interesting and helpful. Best thing I've seen or read about the subject. I'll be taking your advice. Thank you.
Thank you enjoyed this and many of your programs.
Cracking video. Thanks for the tips- my potatoes are growing exponentially! Thanks for sharing when best to harvest them. A little while yet! I’m getting keen to harvest…..will hold off. Cheers. Great videos.
Very nice tutorial Monty, enjoyed watching and listening.
🌱 Happy Gardening my friend's, Terry King.
Thanks Terry, really appreciate it
It's great to see children involved in the gardening.
I love having them involved
Loved your instructional videos. Thank you. 👍🏽😊
My potatoes will never go to the flowering stage because of the hot dry summer. They will also wilt and die. When their tops become all yellow, it is time to harvest them. :) And don't use wood chips to plant potatoes cause you need to hill the potato plants so that it can produce more tubers. I hill my potato plants using half composted tree leaves or freshly cut grass clippings. You don't need to import wood chips from outside. And you don't need to replant your potatoes in March. I left some potatoes unharvested. They always come back in early April here in Zone 8.
Thanks my friend. Exactly what I wanted to know. And wood chip sounds like a good idea for next time. Paul
Excellent... I'm in Tampa - St Pete, Florida and I've got three containers growing right now. Big top growth. I had a lot of fun showing my 7 Y.O. granddaughter how to grow potatoes. We'll see in a couple of months! Thank you for the video!
This was so helpful thank you. My first year of growing veg.🙂
Thanks for the information.. I must say you seem to be the only video that actually tell us what we need to know..
Many thanks
You're most welcome
I've harvested my potatoes and planted more Maris Piper at end of July that should be ready for Christmas. I'm just waiting on my Pinstripe Aubergine to finish growing so I can make some Aloo Baingan yum yum
Great video 😊
I do that with earlies, can sometimes get 3 crops in, in one year. Sounds delicious
Thankyou your comment has gave me hope as I too plan to plant them this week of July. Did u use peat free soil/ garden soil and did u use fish blood bone meal..
@@Manifesting_Secret_Sketchbook I got some small potatoes around November but nothing huge
First time planting potatoes this year, as a friend had extra seed potatoes. Put them in pots on the deck. Squirrels stole a couple, so now the pots are covered in netting. Plants got quite big, and are just starting to flower. Thanks for the clear advice with video. Looking forward to the harvest.
This was incredibly satisfying, I'll be growing potatoes this spring for sure! Love your positive attitude, blessings sent to you.
Thanks James, I love a good potato reveal
My potatoes are going haywire! No flowers, and they have been in-ground for several months already. Never knew they would have so much foliage.
Thank you - I recently got a garden for the first time and am growing potatoes (or trying to!). This is really helpful. Subbed.
Excellent, good with the potato harvest
Assalammulaikum....Sir.
Those Popatoes are lovely and fresh....Alhamdulillah.
I love to cook Chicken Curry with Potatoes....Delicious...😋
Thank you for sharing. Stay blessed to you and family.
Walaikum Salaam, that sounds delicious
Mee too..i like my potatoes in chicken curry especially the free range chicken.
Sometimes i make potatoes fritters dip in chilie sauce...yummy.
A great harvest, great video. Well done!
Thanks for visiting
Really enjoy a potato harvest video brother. I harvested alot and then replanted so not too many weeks for the 2nd batch
Same here, inshallah you'll have a good harvest
Great information love your garden plenty of growing going on thank you 😊 🙏🏻
Good video, nice little harvest, those potatoes looked very tasty!
i'm quite happy with them considereing those are the ones i poisoned lol
Been wondering why I had not seen you for awhile...then 'Ding!" I realized I had not set the Bell notifications. Funny about this vid-I was just researching when to pull potatoes. Had a surprise show up in one of my raised beds this year.
A couple "Tiddlers". I've learned a new word! They are some of my favorite potato for stews and soups frankly. Tender. Thank you for sharing.
I've been wanting to ask this question for a long time: Can you reuse the containers soil you have just pulled the potatoes from? It seems like such a huge amount to use it only once. Thanks for your reply!
Absolutely you can, you can use it as a mulch or revitalise it and plant in it again, here are some ideas

Thanks!
Good morning Mothin. Great information and nice harvest. 👍👍Best wishes Bob.
Thanks Bob, it turned out ok considereing i used the poisoned mulch on it. Hope you're well
Thank you we are well and happy. I hope your back has calmed down.
lovely potatoes monty, nice video 🙂👍
Thanks Jackie
Good one.... Thank you for your time & effort.
Hi mate love watching your stuff 😃 got some Maris piper I planted on 20th of May starting to die back I was going to wait another couple of weeks to unearth them but they look about the same stage as yours
Thanks Kenny, if it looks like they sill might grow on and no danger in blight then there's no harm in leaving them another couple of weeks unless you want to use them
Many thanks MFG. Great advice well presented. Best wishes from the Belfast Castlereagh hills of Northern Ireland
Great info, nice harvest. Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching
Thanks for a great video. I was looking to see when to harvest - if to let the vine die back completely. Your video is helpful. I will be harvesting today. yay!
Awesome happy to have been a help
That was very helpful. Thank you.
Very nice video. Thank you for explaining.
Looks like I’m harvesting my grow bag today thanks bud
Useful info and demo, thanks
Excellent video and you’ve given me a lot of helpful tips, thank you 🙏🏽 🥔 I realise I’ve been picking mine way too early.
So glad it was helpful
Really helpful. Thank you from a potato novice!
Great video, thank you and the children are so cute helping to harvest :)
Great advice there really useful for my own upcoming harvest, thanks very much buddy
No problem 👍
Thanks for this! So helpful🙏🏽
I think I'm the only one who fails with growing potatoes everytime.....so I make myself happy by watching these videos 😁I feel so much joy to see those potatoes being collected from the soil
Oh no sorry to hear that. How do you plant them?
I am here after failing the 1st time. I am planning to try again.
@@MyFamilyGarden I don't plant them whole,I cut them into chunks with the budded eye and sow them
@@ms.anonymousinformer242 🙌
@@homesci3596 maybe try chucking them in whole - I bet you’ll be victorious. I tried with my daughters world book day potatoe last year because I didn’t want to waste it and just to see if it worked in a small plant pot 😂 I then repotted it in to a biggun. We got a few, but picked them too early. Try again, because they’re super easy. I’m just going to wait next time until they’ve died off a bit to get bigger ones.
Thank you for sharing I love planting potatoes on my garden too
You are so welcome
Great Job! Keep doing more!
Good information on harvesting potatoes, I am growing 2 seperate ways and was not sure when to harvest. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much for this video. Awesome video and I definitely subscribed to your Chanel, will be watching more.

It'd be nice to have more gardeners around, i do a livestream on saturdays at 8pm to chat and laugh
Thank you so much. What beauties you harvested!
Thanks for this. I’ve grown potatoes for the first time in containers this year. The leaves have died right back so I better harvest them now!
This is super helpful thank you!

Welcome!
I loved your video. I had 2 potatoes that grew long eyes and roots. On top of microwave over the winter. I cut ut in have and planted them. I never have grown potatoes before. I'm thrill about the harvest. Watched your video . Didn't know when to dig them up. What I got was wonderful. So yummy mashed with butter. So easy. Didn't hardly do anything to them just watered them
To easy. Thank you.

Thanks for a great informative video 👍😊
Thank you this video! I needed to know when my potatoes are ready 🤗🥔🥔🥔🥔

Helpful trick for potted spuds is to build a 24"x36" frame and take metal mesh (like chicken fence) and make a shaker to sift out the produce.
do you mean something like this czcams.com/video/AONbzF8ok4k/video.html
