Since she saw Old Xie, Qiao Qingyu took the opportunity to discuss the potato harvest from yesterday with him, "Director Xie, as long as Xichuan doesn't get a month of heavy rain, the potatoes will have a bumper crop this year."
"Hahaha, a month of heavy rain in Xichuan? Impossible!" Old Xie laughed, shaking his head.
Qiao Qingyu also smiled, "Aside from what we've set aside for winter consumption, we should use the rest as seed potatoes. However, my storage isn't quite right for that, we should start digging a cellar specifically for storing potatoes now."
Potatoes are tubers; after sprouting next spring, they can be planted directly in the ground. She read about potatoes, and as long as they've sprouted, there should be no problem.
After all, they're not like corn or rice seeds, where selection is more meaningful.
