Hi Lisa, yes the actual potato is green if it has been subject to light so you should keep the plants well mulched in case the potatoes are close to the surface, my spuds are still showing no signs of shooting, they are in the potting shed in egg cartons, will they shoot soon? Or shall I just plant them now? They are certified seed spuds.
