Default Keeping Potatoes

In article ,
says...

Morrison's' have got bags of 'Unwashed Potatoes' at £2.00 a bag. (Not
weighed but about 28lb) We bought a bag of Desiree and the are beautiful.
Question. If I go and get another couple of bags and keep them in the garage
how long will they keep. Paper Sack type bags about 24 " high with a sewn
seam and carrying handle.

Did look at them in Morrisons this morning. A bit unsure as
several of the bags were wet in places.

I would open the bags and check for any damaged/rotten ones,
then store in a couple of hessian sacks.

Mainidea is to kep them quite cool, and definitely out of the
light.
