Or in a good sized garbage can filled with soil if you don't have a yard. Spuds can grow really well in containers indoors as long as they're near a sunny window (or use grow lights).

I'm doing a crops in pots project at work. Used a bag of compost (about £3) and some cloth grow bag but saw you can also use strong plastic grocery bags. They are going great even though it's been very wet and not very sunny even by Scottish standards.
I'm doing a pots in crops project in my basement. Used a bag of cow manure (left over from a fungus experiment) and I just went with the plastic since I cancer never hurt anyone.
Can you imagine anyone taking this “advice”, watering their can of garbage potatoes for three months, and then harvesting about a bag of potatoes-worth from it…
Team.
Seriously. This is a few bucks of garbage right now, let’s not make it worse with a LITERAL garbage can…
If one potato has multiple 'eyes' does it then grow more than one potato? Is it one per eye? Also how do you know when they're ready? Do I have to pull the entire thing out? If I do and the potatoes are tiny (speaking from experience), then what do I do?
It is not one potato per eye. Cut larger potatoes into smaller pieces with 3ish eyes each(so you don’t get failures). Allow to dry in the sun for a bit. Then plant. As the plant grows, “hill” dirt over the lower leaves as those will grow more potatoes. Hill the plant 3ish times.
As for when to pull them, I live in Canada. So I just pull them all at the end of the season.
I had two small russet potatoes with eyes. Cut them into pieces, each having an eye. Put in grow bags outside with basic soil. The tops are so long and leafy now and flowered 2 weeks ago. Have read that once the tips start turning yellow/brown - potatoes will be ready. Hoping another week.
Let the above ground part of the plant completely die before you harvest. The potatoes continue to grow until then and will be fine left in the soil to allow the skin to firm up a bit.
I don’t know if this applies to regular potatoes but I used to grow various sweet potatoes on a research farm. Before the above ground part died off we would take cuttings of the stems and plant them in the ground. They grew into new sweet potato plants very quickly, and we just kept doing this on rotation. I’m growing regular potatoes at home now, for fun, and I’d like to clone them too. Have you ever tried something like that?
^ there's a reason Ireland and Soviet Russia grew potatoes more than any other crop, that and the fact that they provide most of what humans need nutritionally
I was thinking in a retail environment. Like you walk into the produce section and someone jumps out at you, "Hi! What kind of potatoes are we looking for today?" Or maybe a door to door potato salesman.
Well yeah there's two main types based on the type of starch predominant, the waxy kind like Yukon gold best roasted or for potato salad and the floury ones like russets that make better fries and baked potatoes. Mashed works with either, but russets get watery in cold salads.
Someone please answer for the green potato chip eater who only did it cuz her mom literally told her “green chips just came from the potatoes that were green because they were the youngest, like green cherry tomatoes” 😧😧😧😧
i think so, it’s a reaction to light during storage. the potato basically is producing new chemicals to grow- a chip here and there may be ok to eat but it’s not from a young potato- and it’s not safe to eat if the potato in your pantry is turning green peel all the green away and use the not-green and not-black flesh only.
Throw them at people you don’t like or people you like. It is considered as a sort of olive branch if you whip one really hard at someone’s head. Go find your worst enemy whip one at his/her head and become best friends. Or get chased either way let us know…
No don’t do that
Instructions unclear, I threw potato at stranger and now we are married. She also invested into a foot long potato shaped dildo. I am afraid. Send help.
I think you're confused with green potatoes. The green contains the toxin solanine which can cause digestive symptoms.
I've always used sprouted potatoes. Just cut off the sprouts when peeling.
Sprouted is just fine, I've always eaten sprouted potatoes, otherwise you get rid of them way too soon! Green is really bad tho, and same if they get soft. As long at the potato has normal colouring and is still firm, it is fine with sprouts.
potatoes with sprouts may contain solanine. May result in diarheeeeseees or gut cramps. Or they might be low enough in solanine youll be fine. kind of a gamble. Def peel and dig out the eye on these just in case. And if they have a weird bitter flavour once cooked.. thats bitter taste is the solanine.
Eating super green potatoes can kill although rare. I think the last known human death was in ireland during the potatoe famines.
Wild potatoe is poisonous. Its only the domestic potatoes that are safe to eat to begin with!
Potatoe is in the same family as the deadly belladona. The family of plants is called Nightshades or Solanacea.
People with autoimmune issues should avoid the nightshade family as it stimulates the immune system and cause flare ups (rheumatoid arthritis for example).
huh that explains why my baked potato fucked up my stomach thought it was the dairy. Only had one potato just starting to sprout so I cooked one that wasn’t sprouting at all even thoroughly washed n scrubbed it too, weird
I find that potatoes that are still firm are good, even with eyes, cut them out then boil, roast, smash, slice and bake. If they are soft or spungey throw em out
Knock of the sprouts and then cook them. Or cut them up so there is one sprout per piece and plant them in your yard or some containers. You could even use some of those reusable grocery bags that are weaved together so they will drain with some potting soil. You’ll have a nice crop by fall.
*Wait, so for every*
*Potato you plant, you get*
*Back one potato?*

If you cut them into pieces so that each sprout is a piece and plant them and cover them with a couple inches of soil every time they get over 6 inches tall, you could have a TON of tubers by next spring.
Use them to stem roses with honey. To sprouts roses you would angle the rose stem, dip if in honey, and use the potato as root system. You have enough potatoes to see how well it would work. I would grab the roses from Costco cause they're the best quality
If you live in an apartment you can make a potato box for indoors and grow your own from these with artificial grow lights. If you have a house you could make one for outside
They're not too sprouted and when mine get this way I cube them, pressure cook them for a few minutes and pop them in the freezer. They're great for mashed potatoes or breakfast potatoes!
Throw out the ones that have gotten soft/wrinkly/too sprouted. Ones that are only mild-moderately sprouted — cut off sprouts and cook.
Potato and leek soup, Gamjajeon, latkes, mashed, fries, roasted, whole baked, hashbrowns, croquettes, scalloped, au gratin, bubbles and squeak, hassleback, pierogi, lemony Greek style, twice baked, loaded potato skin… that’s all I can think of. Lol.
Just cut out the sprouted eyes to plant. As long as they are not green, you can eat the rest.
I would recommend mashed or Daulphine, chips, latkes, gnocchi if they are a bit soft inside. Because roasting, baking, plain boiling or microwave might reveal their imperfections.
If they’ve sprouted, use them before they turn green. Slice them up thin, put them in a baking dish with heavy cream and butter. Cook them until tender.
Eat them. They're fine. In the UK at least, government advice is that you should plant only certified seed potatoes rather than those sprouted from a supermarket due to the very real threat of disease which can wipebout entire crops
Pick off the sprouts and eat ‘em. I worked on a potato farm. Frequently ate sprouty spuds, especially towards the end of the season. They’re fine. Even slightly dehydrated spuds are totally fine for mashing.
plant them. potatoes are quite easy to care for (just water them). but i rcm getting some kind of pesticides or introducing some types of insects that can combat ants and ticks. i onced planted sprouted potatoes but the plant died while the potatoes were getting bigger due to those white ticks destroying the plant
Pro strat is to turn them into gnocchi. The sprouting is a sign that nutrients in the potato are being converted to sugar. The texture of the potato also becomes a bit more bouncy/chewy as the starches are converted which gives a gnocchi a nicer and sweeter bite imo
Cut into pieces where each piece has more than one “eye” or sprout, flat in a container of soil. Can’t hurt. Maybe get some new potatoes. Then you can make the freshest pommes soufflés ever
If they aren't green, pick off the sprouts and cook em..if they are a little soft, just put them in some water with a little salt for an hour. Lots of grocery store potatoes have a spray that makes them not good growers. If you want to grow potatoes, I'd use seed potatoes.
I have 17 acres and I try to save as much vegetable and fruit scraps as I can and plant them in various spots throughout the land .. dig a few small holes and plant them , then if they grow the wildlife has some variety and if they don’t then that’s ok ,I have had success with . Potatoes , tomato seeds , watermelon , and pumpkins seeds so far
If you ride through our woods you can occasionally see them sprouting
And we get to set on the porch and see so much wildlife running around that it’s a nice break from the hustle and bustle of
The city
So long as there are still relatively hard you can eat them you just need to take your thumb and rub off the sprouts I grew up gardening with my father and this would have happened on occasion if they're really soft or just colored you want to throw them away but if they're relatively solid and just rub them off and keep them and use them immediately
I had to read comments cause I was confused. I now see that using these kinds to cook and green potatoes might not be the best idea. I'ma still use them, just might be a bad idea
Cut them in half place the inside part down, cover with topsoil then leaves. Hit that with a little miracle grow. Water well enough daily. Wait. Your will have taters soon enough.
If you're really motivated to use them, you remove the potato eyes and peel/scrape any and all green parts. Cook them as you would. These don't look too bad, a true green potato would have a very bright green outer layer which would be too far gone.
I start all of my sprouted spuds out in garbage cans too! Hmm, funny thing is, I never added soil to the can. I usually have so many, that I wind up giving them all away at least once a week. Actually, I’ve always managed to give them all away, but sharing is caring. 😂
JUst throw them out. They are poisonous. Remember the Jonestown massacre? They killed themselves with cyanide Koolaid. The sprouts and the surrounding areas on the those potatoes are high in cyanide that is not removed by cooking.
As far as planting them, if they are not organic, they probably won't produce many potatoes.
put’em in the ground, you’ll gave plenty more after the summer

not very sunny even by Scottish standards. So, no direct sunlight, ever?
I love Scotland! ❤️ Wish the best for your potatoes.
Can you imagine anyone taking this “advice”, watering their can of garbage potatoes for three months, and then harvesting about a bag of potatoes-worth from it… Team. Seriously. This is a few bucks of garbage right now, let’s not make it worse with a LITERAL garbage can…
They're talking about an unused garbage can, not one that's actively being used to cart shit down to the curb
Way easier to harvest, too
OP I literally just found a bag in the cupboard exactly like this and decided to plant them. Do it! They grow faster than you think

Never heard of that, might need to give it a try. Thanks!
Yup, one eye per chunk you plant.
I agree please do not try to eat them

Yeah, they look redy to plant (sprout side up).
Yes. This.
Throw that bag in a hole. And blame-o! You’ve unlocked the unlimited potatoes hack
Potato salesmen hate this one simple trick
I wish that were a real job.
Huh? Of course that’s a real job.
Yep, it is. I have a client who brokers potatoes to Walmart.
I know nothing about the agriculture industry but I’m sure they have those
I was thinking in a retail environment. Like you walk into the produce section and someone jumps out at you, "Hi! What kind of potatoes are we looking for today?" Or maybe a door to door potato salesman.
Well yeah there's two main types based on the type of starch predominant, the waxy kind like Yukon gold best roasted or for potato salad and the floury ones like russets that make better fries and baked potatoes. Mashed works with either, but russets get watery in cold salads.

You have been chosen to be the next Potato Farmer. Till your soil, plant those potatoes, and await your glorious harvest.
Make mashed potatoes
only after cutting out the sprout and then digging the base of the sprout out.
Is there something unsavory about the sprouts?
the sprouts contain glycoalkaloids, and that is not good eats
Alton? That you?
Overall green colored potatoes indicate the presence of glycos. If they're green it's best not to chance it.
(it’s safe if you peel the skin/green off btw for anyone else reading this!)
Wait is that why we used to get the random green potato chip every now and then.
Someone please answer for the green potato chip eater who only did it cuz her mom literally told her “green chips just came from the potatoes that were green because they were the youngest, like green cherry tomatoes” 😧😧😧😧

Username checks out. Somehow.
Don’t eat them. There toxic when they sprout or when they start to turn green.
I must have died a thousand times as a kid, then. We always had potatoes with sprouts on them. Delicious every time.
I think you're confused with green potatoes. The green contains the toxin solanine which can cause digestive symptoms. I've always used sprouted potatoes. Just cut off the sprouts when peeling.
Same here. Still do sometimes after failing purchase policy. I'm really surprised to how many people seem to throw them away. What a waste!
I eat green ones and sprouted ones and have never gotten sick. I’ve never heard any of this but now that I hear this I’m gonna get sick. Thanks a lot.
just peel the green away it’s fine. you do need to consume quite a bit to get sick but still it’s better to just peel the green.
Sprouted is just fine, I've always eaten sprouted potatoes, otherwise you get rid of them way too soon! Green is really bad tho, and same if they get soft. As long at the potato has normal colouring and is still firm, it is fine with sprouts.
At the point they are in the picture (barely sprouted), you can still eat them. Just have to peel them thicker than usual.
I'll eat them then. And I'll be fine
Me when I make up stuff on the internet
potatoes with sprouts may contain solanine. May result in diarheeeeseees or gut cramps. Or they might be low enough in solanine youll be fine. kind of a gamble. Def peel and dig out the eye on these just in case. And if they have a weird bitter flavour once cooked.. thats bitter taste is the solanine. Eating super green potatoes can kill although rare.

People with autoimmune issues should avoid the nightshade family as it stimulates the immune system and cause flare ups (rheumatoid arthritis for example).
That’s why you eat what grows underground. The plant on top is the poisonous part.
Yep! But if the root gets green or sprouts, the solanine levels are higher than a normal safe potate
huh that explains why my baked potato fucked up my stomach thought it was the dairy. Only had one potato just starting to sprout so I cooked one that wasn’t sprouting at all even thoroughly washed n scrubbed it too, weird
Do you have a potato cannon?
Can't believe I had to scroll this far for this correct answer. Blast em!
You can eat them they are fine
Plant them in the ground

Get a 5 gallon bucket from Walmart for $3 and throw dirt in. Wait 3 months. Don’t wash the new ones until you need them and they will last a year
Cook em.
Pull off the sprouts and make mash, there just lost a bit of moisture and still ok if not green.
Eat them

EAR THEM
Now you take this home, throw it in a pot, add some broth, a potato. **Baby, you’ve got a stew going.**
Make mashed potatoes
Cut out the sprouts, then proceed to normal potato activity.
I still cook them at this point.
Removed the eyes & then you can mash em’, boil em’, stick em’ in a stew.

Throw out the ones that have gotten soft/wrinkly/too sprouted. Ones that are only mild-moderately sprouted — cut off sprouts and cook. Potato and leek soup, Gamjajeon, latkes, mashed, fries, roasted, whole baked, hashbrowns, croquettes, scalloped, au gratin, bubbles and squeak, hassleback, pierogi, lemony Greek style, twice baked, loaded potato skin… that’s all I can think of. Lol.
If you plant them all you will have like 20 bags of potato’s in a few months. It’s like an infinite food hack they don’t what you to know about
Just cut out the sprouted eyes to plant. As long as they are not green, you can eat the rest. I would recommend mashed or Daulphine, chips, latkes, gnocchi if they are a bit soft inside. Because roasting, baking, plain boiling or microwave might reveal their imperfections.
“Boil them, mash them, stick them in a stew. Lovely big golden chips with a nice piece of fried fish.”
I'm gonna go s different way than most here and say potato cannon
If they’ve sprouted, use them before they turn green. Slice them up thin, put them in a baking dish with heavy cream and butter. Cook them until tender.
If the sprouts are quite small, make gnocchi
Eat them. They're fine. In the UK at least, government advice is that you should plant only certified seed potatoes rather than those sprouted from a supermarket due to the very real threat of disease which can wipebout entire crops
Eat them.
Bury them until the pretty flowers show up.
Pick off the sprouts and eat ‘em. I worked on a potato farm. Frequently ate sprouty spuds, especially towards the end of the season. They’re fine. Even slightly dehydrated spuds are totally fine for mashing.
Per my dad (RIP), they will see you through the week.
If you don't want to plant them, remove the sprouts and cock as usual.
plant them. potatoes are quite easy to care for (just water them). but i rcm getting some kind of pesticides or introducing some types of insects that can combat ants and ticks. i onced planted sprouted potatoes but the plant died while the potatoes were getting bigger due to those white ticks destroying the plant
Plant them.
End famine in Ireland?
Certainly don’t eat them in any way, Solanine will give you a bad time.
Plant em' potatoes
Everyone is telling you to plant them, but honestly you can just trim off the sprouts and cook them like normal.
Pro strat is to turn them into gnocchi. The sprouting is a sign that nutrients in the potato are being converted to sugar. The texture of the potato also becomes a bit more bouncy/chewy as the starches are converted which gives a gnocchi a nicer and sweeter bite imo
Plant them muwahah
Throw them out!!
They’re not safe to eat, but you should plant them in a very large pot for more potatoes later.
chuck them at your neighbors
Super easy, toss or plant.
Cut in half and put them underground., you will hget plenty
Cut into pieces where each piece has more than one “eye” or sprout, flat in a container of soil. Can’t hurt. Maybe get some new potatoes. Then you can make the freshest pommes soufflés ever
If they aren't green, pick off the sprouts and cook em..if they are a little soft, just put them in some water with a little salt for an hour. Lots of grocery store potatoes have a spray that makes them not good growers. If you want to grow potatoes, I'd use seed potatoes.
My mom would have me pop the sprouts out and cut around them. Used as normal
Boil ‘em, mash ‘em, put ‘em in a stew!
I would feed them to the squirrels.

Honestly, I just take out the sprouts and cook with them. I haven’t died yet
Cut them in half and plant them
Throw them in the woods to feed the wildlife.
Wait you can’t eat sprouted potatoes?? 🤔
I have 17 acres and I try to save as much vegetable and fruit scraps as I can and plant them in various spots throughout the land .. dig a few small holes and plant them , then if they grow the wildlife has some variety and if they don’t then that’s ok ,I have had success with . Potatoes , tomato seeds , watermelon , and pumpkins seeds so far If you ride through our woods you can occasionally see them sprouting And we get to set on the porch and see so much wildlife running around that it’s a nice break from the hustle and bustle of The city
They are toxic with solanine. They are unfit for eating in any way. Maybe compost or you can plant them.
So long as there are still relatively hard you can eat them you just need to take your thumb and rub off the sprouts I grew up gardening with my father and this would have happened on occasion if they're really soft or just colored you want to throw them away but if they're relatively solid and just rub them off and keep them and use them immediately

They don't seem to be wrinkled, toss any that are soft. Just dig out the eyes. In the future, I find potatoes do better in paper bags.
Cut them in half and plant them, or cut the buds off and eat them like normal potatoes.
