Potato harvest is excellent this year! My tomatoes are okay, but I have not gotten as many as id like. Feel free to laugh with me on my pathetic corn lol

gardening is so legit. Learning more with each season :)

Im always planting potatoes though. Its beyond easy, and I absolutey enjoy the act of digging for the spuds. I was sad I had no more to dig!

you can pickle potatoes? since potatoes last long on the shelf do pickled potatoes last longer than other pickled things?

You can do “quick pickles” with small potatoes, meaning you gently cook them first and then add them to brine for 24 hours and store them in the fridge for about a week.

They’re too starchy to do them raw in the traditional pickling method.

You can pickle any organic matter.

Whether it’s palatable or even edible after is an entire other matter.
