- Indeterminate Potatoes: These varieties yield their tubers in multiple, vertical layers, allowing for a larger harvest. To maximize yield, growers need to mound soil around the stems as the plants grow for additional space.
Familiarity with these types will greatly enhance your growing experience and yield.
Accessible Growing Methods
