[QUOTE="Free Trapper, post: 2417206, member: 26381"] My garden is laid out in 80 ft rows. Last year I planted one of my potato rows by plowing up a furrow with a middle buster set as low as it would go, and after throwing in all the cut pieces of spuds, immediately covering them with the hiller set up pretty high. This placed the pieces at approximately 16" in the ground. They come up just fine and made a pretty good crop. No hilling what soever and when it came time to harvest, back to the middle buster set as low as it would go and it brought up all the spuds to the surface for easy harvesting. This is my prefered method from now on. My grown sons like to make fun of me for planting all the pieces cut side down, but they sure don't mind showing up when its harvest time !..... [/QUOTE]
