Thank you for your comment @cryptoxicate!
Oh I hope those work out for you! It is so lovely to just pick up some fresh greens and herbs when cooking. Hopefully in future you will have your gardening space too!
I also have thought about trying some alternative ways of planting potatoes. My idea was to build a potato tower, but will see if I will manage in time.
I wish you best of luck with all your plants and many yummy meals that incorporate them :)
