3. Plant the Seed Potatoes: Place whole seed potatoes or properly cut pieces approximately 3–4 inches deep with the eyes facing upward.
4. Space Plants: Allow approximately 10–12 inches between plants and adequate space between rows.
5. Water Consistently: Keep soil evenly moist, particularly while plants are flowering and tubers are developing.
