    You Can Tell I'm Bored...............

    Here's a thought for you......(oh no, here we go again I hear you say).......Looking at a previous thread, could spuds grow 6ft tall?...........My idea is to plant a spud in a flower bucket, put a 6ft cane in the bucket then when the foliage shows, place a bottomless bucket inside & top that one up, then repeat the procedure untill all 6 buckets are full............just a madcap idea but if I can stop the tower from falling over I wondered if it would work...........

        Are you growing it under cover Bigmally? Do you have any particular variety in mind. Give it a try, you know you want to.

        And when your back stops aching,
        And your hands begin to harden.
        You will find yourself a partner,
        In the glory of the garden.

            ...........you've just solved the problem of feeding the world, BM ...........

            Imagine, if you will ~ seemingly never ending towers reaching into the sky like sky-scrapers ~ brimming with wonderful tatties ..............

              What's the floor made of? You could lower the floor a few feet.

                      OK, a bit of work but it would stop you from being bored.

                          Now we have one thread about growing spuds sideways and one about growing spuds upright.

                          How about 45 degree spuds? I am NOT being serious!
