Potato Grow Bag Experiment

This year we decided to try growing potatoes. I have seen a lot of videos of grow bags and potatoes. Some people do well, others not so good. So we decided to compare grow bags to growing right in the ground. I believe the grow bags didn't do as well for two reasons. One is with the grow bag being on the ground the soil temperature in the bag was a lot higher. Potatoes would prefer a cooler temperature to grow. I believe this helped them grow fast in the early spring when it wasn't too hot yet. But once it got hot outside the soil temperature was too hot for the potatoes produce well. The other reason is the soil would dry out to quickly in the bag. Dryer than it would have been in the ground. You could see the leafs start to curl and wilt if you forgot to water them for a couple days.
