    Default Fingerling seed potatoes

    Anybody know where to get some from? Tried some from the grocery store last year but they must have been treated/sprayed because they never sprouted out.

    Tried Tagawa Gardens today but they didn't have any. Maybe a sprouts/vitamin cottage type of place?

    Sometimes I can get potatoes from Vitamin Cottage to sprout. I have also seen seed potatoes at Nicks. Not sure if they have fingerlings.

    Here in Colorado is where most major varieties of potatoes originated.
    If you can look up the history of Eastonville, Colorado (which now no longer exists due to a flood taking out a rail line that was never re-built)
    I say lets all remove the warning labels and let nature take its course.

    I need to get around to figuring out the garden this year. We may try fingerlings again. Looks like half are already sold out.

    I would go down to Vitamin Cottage and see what they have in their produce section. This is a sweet potato I bought from them a while ago. It sprouted great! I haven't looked to see if they have fingering s but they usually have an interesting selection. I also grow purple potatoes I got from them several years back.

    Could be. I saw some poking up in my garden last week, but it could depend on variety and depth.
