Do I Still Have Time To Plant Potatoes?
Q: Do I still have time to plant potatoes?
A: Planting potatoes in fall in north Georgia is not usually successful. Sometimes you can get a crop if we have a warm fall and late frost but typically the soil cools off too much for potatoes to grow very well. The best time to plant is in February when the soil is warming up. I have a great list of Georgia gardening resources at http://www.walterreeves.com/food-gardening/uga-vegetable-gardening-publications/.
