The leafy top is called a haulm and on commercial farms the harvester has a header that removes the haulm before the main part of the harvester scoops up the potatoes. Anyone who’s played Farming Simulator is familiar with these machines, such as the Ropa Panther 2.
Top? No tuber?
All stems and leaves and flowers and shit. But no potatoes growing in the roots of the plants.
Thanks. Is that unusual? I always assumed potatoes were an easy grow.
That is unusual, because yeah, potatoes are easy to grow
