Coulda been the potatoes when we laid the potatoes in soil they tended to spoil quickly. We’ve done it before years ago but these last couple years …no go.
Tried both ways this year…water won out. Being in Michigan the ground warms slowly in the spring…the extra step … rooting the slips gives them time to grow while it warms up outside.
