One Potato, Two Potato...
Well, I have grown plants before and thought of maybe growing my own vegetables but as a small amount goes a long way(frozen and/or fresh)It's easy just to buy what I need.
But I have to say, I have never ever known my potatoes sprout their roots as much as they do these days. Yet I do not store them any differently to how I have for a number of decades. I have heard t said that you can grow many potatoes from a very small amount and in a very small amount of space.
And for the first time ever some of my cloves of garlic have started to sprout(I'm still using them)I have a feeling that if I planted them in a pot or outside where sunlight could reach them I could be growing my own garlic maybe I'll stick a clove in some compost and just see what happens...
If I do I'll let you know what happens.

I guess it revolves around how and for how long they've been stored previously. I don't think it's much to worry about and I also don't see why they shouldn't grow if you give them a helping hand!
Yes, potatoes and garlic can be grown easily but waiting for them and seeing your own results may be fun, the time it take I think I'll just buy them...A full bulb of garlic 40p with maybe 12 cloves or more or wait 3-5 months for growing some...not much of a contest.
