Potatoes & Cattle Help!: Advice Needed
« on: July 05, 2012, 22:27 »
I just discovered yesterday that cattle broke into my potato patch and devastated most of crop.  Half the stalks have been eaten, the other half trampled. They were a maincrop, planted early May. Should I salvage whatever potatoes I can or leave them in the ground to hopefully resprout for a late harvest?

Welcome to the site  :D

Leave them be - if they are still attached they will continue to grow.
