Default Can the Potato Seeds Grow into Potatoes?

"qquito" wrote in message
However, I noticed that the potato plants above the ground blossom

and
then bear small fruits about the size of cherry tomatoes, and these
fruits have small seeds in them.

What if we plant these seeds into the soil? Will they grow into
potatoes?


Yes. That is how new varieties of potatoes are bred.

By the way, are these fruits edible?


I wouldn't.
