After browsing the internet and looking at what veg i was too grow, i had found something missing the good old potato.
Now the standard tomato growbag was not going too realy hold a good crop of potatos, and i still have not cleared enough of the garden too plant a few furrows.

how could i spend the least amount of money and get a nice crop. hmmmm potato box thats it a potato box. a few searches later and i found what i wanted.

a potato box that says it could yield 100lb that is alot of chips/frenchfries.

idea is simple as you can see in the attatchment picture. 4x posts and a stack of boards. everytime potato plant reaches a foot-two foot in size you nail on a few more boards and backfill, forcing plant too throw roots from nodes on main stem.

i realy like this idea, it is a big spacesaver for small gardens/patio's and 100lb sounds alot but i realy wonder if it is possible, only way too find out is build and grow too see what my total yield is.
