Harvesting backyard potatoes: How much potatoes do I get per plant?

Want to grow potatoes at home and before you plant them you want to know if growing potatoes at home is worth it or you want to know how much potatoes to expect per plant when you grow your own potatoes at home?

In this video we will see how much potatoes a farmer or gardener can get per single potato plant if they grow store-bought potatoes and use organic manure only to grow the potatoes.

Exactly 4 months ago, or 120 days ago, I planted some store-bought potatoes in my backyard. The pocket had about 84 potatoes and I planted all of them.

The potatoes were exclusively grown using chicken manure and nothing else. I will not say it was pure organic farming because I used chemicals like belt and lambda to get rid of pests like leaf miners which destroy the potato leaves and white grubs which feast on the potatoes underground. However, no chemical fertilizers were used throughout the potato farming process.

By just looking at my harvest, one can surely get convinced that backyard potato farming can be rewarding if done correctly.

You can easily grow all the potatoes your family consume per year in your backyard, all you simply need to do is to know how to grow potatoes easily, what to use to fertilize the potatoes and when to apply the organic manure as well as insecticides, so as to protect your backyard potato farming crop from pests and insects such as whitegrubs, leaf miners and red spider mites.
