Yeah but you can't use the soil for 4 years after you used it once with potatoes and in the Netherlands it is illegal to grow them in the ground. I'm going to grow them with aquaponics. Once every 100days after planting you get potatoes. 😃 i had my potatoharvest in soil a few weeks ago.

We have been growing potatoes in that exact spot for more than 50 years (some crop rotation ofc)

Aahh well I will do it in an aquaponics system you don't need crop rotation this way and it's whole year round.

Ideally, you should rotate crops; I get away with growing potatoes only every second year in the same spot.

There are endless ways to grow them. I would go with whatever fits your context - some people grow them in buckets. 10 minutes on youtube should give you a bunch of ideas.

I recommend them, because they take 0 effort. You don't even have to water them. Btw, you don't necessarily need special seed potatoes - Organic potatoes from ALDI or LIDL will do.
