The Tire Tower Method for Growing Potatoes

Stacking tires filled with soil/straw for potatoes works similarly to hilling in ground. Each added tire encourages more tuber formation along the buried stem.

How It Works

1. Place seed potatoes in first tire with soil.
2. As vines grow, add tire and more soil/straw mix.
3. Repeat up to 4-5 tires high.
4. Harvest by removing tires top-down.

Requirements

• Regular watering and feeding.
• Good drainage (drill holes in tire sidewalls).
• Full sun.

Worth trying for small spaces or poor soil.
