Potatoes in my border

I can only assume that the previous tenant may have chucked a load of old potatoes out at some time and they are now growing. Will these be ok to eat? How can you tell? I am growing my own potatoes at the moment in a couple of bags on the patio and they seem to be doing well. It would be interesting to compare mine with these "wild" ones but I don't want to risk eating them if they could be potentially be harmful. Thanks I could not advise you to eat them, although i'll tell you i'd probably eat them unless they're growing near spilt oil or chemicals, a septic tank, stagnant water, some animal/s corpse/s or fresh animal feces, because i'm so tight-fisted. I suppose they COULD be potentially be harmful... you never know what the previous tenants have chucked in that soil, but that'd still be the case if you'd have decided to grow your own potatoes in there. but i suppose as the e coli outbreak in Europe proves, shop bought veggies COULD be potentially harmful too. Songbird, I believe this is your cue. -- - Billy Mad dog Republicans to the right. Democratic spider webs to the left. True conservatives, and liberals not to be found anywhere in the phantasmagoria of the American political landscape. America is not broke. The country is awash in wealth and cash. It's just that it's not in your hands. It has been transferred, in the greatest heist in history, from the workers and consumers to the banks and the portfolios of the uber-rich. http://www.politifact.com/wisconsin/.../michael-moore /michael-moore-says-400-americans-have-more-wealth-/ |
