RIP Slimey, or: Potato Experiment

It actually looks worse in person:

The leaves are all shriveled.  I killed it.  Oh well… next I am going to try and grow sprouts out of this new potato (I’m assuming this will require little to no effort):

  1. i’m a terrible gardener. i’ve killed so many plants. i get so confused with some needing lots of light, some needing little, some needing lots of water, some preferring dry soil, and then the bugs and dirt pH, BLAH!

    it’s just not for me. i’ll have to accept that if spraying it with a water hose once a week doesn’t do the trick, it’s too high maintenance for my tastes.

  2. Ditto. Succulents are fairly easy to take care of… that’s why Sprinkles is still alive. I’ve gone weeks without watering it before (oops).

    I figured growing sprouts of a potato would be mildly entertaining and only require me to put a potato on a pile of dirt, easy enough. It’s something to look at between walking in my office door and sitting at my desk.
