This post reminded me that I have a question about
seed potatoes. I'm confused about what I've been reading. It sounds like the grocery store
potato is treated with something that keeps it from sprouting. I'm probably not interested in
growing something from a typical grocery store
potato anyhow. If I got some organic
potatoes from a farmer's market, can those be used as
seed potatoes? I've also read that you should by
seed potatoes specifically certified disease-free. How important is this? If I am going to spend the extra money to order them from a reputable dealer, then I also want them to be non-gmo and organic. Any idea where I can find something like this? We eat a lot of
potatoes and really want to grow lots this year. Thanks! ~Beth~
