It wasn't my intention, but here it is. Still too frosty to plant outside but it's getting bigger every day.

This also isn't the best pot to have used for transplanting, I have a feeling this thing will be too big in a week.

Advice is welcome. No I won't eat this potato, because it's raw.

That will need repotting soon. Just don't neglect your ear muffs.

wtf do you mean, you fucking planted it xD of course it growing was your intention, unless you didn't know that plants grow when planted, which I wouldn't believe you even if you said it.

Also don't plant any of the seeds these flowers may make. They could be poisonous.

Potatoes (and tomatoes, and I think eggplants) are nightshades, and we grow them by sticking them in the ground because new offshoots are clones.

Keep it as a flower, though, its neat.

Two low glycoalkaloid varieties are unlikely to create a high glycoalkaloid variety (and its unlikely to find a high glycoalkaloid variety outside of south America. But it's possible. Like two short people having a tall child.

Also its probably sterile.
