Don’t throw it away, compost it.

But why? And what’s with bricks under the bags? I’m disturbed be the lack of reasoning provided in this video.

Yes, it’s a flowering plant. The fruit look like tomatoes but are poisonous. But sowing seeds has some disadvantages for potatoes.

First, unless you take precautions the plants you grow will cross with others around, you’ll end up with a mish mash of variety characteristics in the progeny. Maybe good, maybe bad.

Second, any tubers your sown seeds make in the first year will be tiny, it might take several years of keeping tubers and replanting before you get anything worth eating.

So unless you’re experimenting it’s more productive to not eat a few tubers and replant them for the next years crop. More consistent flavour and a bigger crop.

Stoneware is the worst. I have 50+ year old hand me down ceramics that seem tough as hell. New stuff ends up chipped, cracked and broken far too soon.

I’m certain that modern tableware is built to fail compared to what it’s possible for modern ceramic science to create.

Can we not just get rid of the traffic instead?

Ice age? No. Western Europe will have cder winters and hotter summers.

Tried to grow them in our greenhouse and failed. (Scotland)

No idea where to buy them, just pointing they’re quite hard to grow here.
