What happens if you don't cover your potato plants? Yikes, mine are huge, they are on raised bed, but what in the world am I suppose to cover and why? Does this mean I've lost all my potatoes from a 44-foot row of them? <br />Nervous Nelly now about the potatoes!<br />Your garden is beautiful. I can relate to all the weed-pulling -- oh my aching back, knees and legs. <br />Hope you can help me with my potato question.<br />Happy Day - And hoping you have lots more sunny days ahead!<br />BobbieBobbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06956575338303300789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-27740578459215585102016-06-17T18:28:15.793-05:002016-06-17T18:28:15.793-05:00Kristina - I got the potatoes done today.

Wooohooo, I'm so happy to hear you were able to spend the day in your garden, and your daughter came over to help both you and Papa Pea.
