Potatoes are the most pop
ular vegetable at the dinner
table. But if you want to grow
your own, better stick to the
Irish variety. Sweet potatoes
are especially tricky for the
home gardener, so leave them
to commercial growers.
Buy seed potatoes to grow
lijsh spuds. Since potatoes re
quire four months of cool
temperatures, get them started,
as soon as you can work the
ground. Cut the seed potatoes
so that each piece contains one
or two good eyes.
The seed pieces should
weigh at least one and one-half
ounces. Water the soil and
space the chunks 10 inches
apart, eyes up. Firm them into
the ground and cover with four
inches of fine soil. Leave about
a yard between each row.
Potato roots need constant
moisture, so don’t let the soil
dry out. If you want a few
“new” potatoes, dig them
when the tops begin to flower.
Soon after blossoming pile
some soil around the base of
each plant to cover tubers and
prevent greening. When the
tops die down, the potatoes are
ready to harvest.
Do not expose fresh dug
potatoes to strong sunlight for
more than a short period of
time.
Store your potatoes in a
dark, dry place with a tempera
ture of around 40 degrees. If
mice are a problem, cover the
baskets with screens.
You don’t need many, so
plant a few peppers.
There are three kinds—bell,
pimintoe and hot. Ask for a
disease or mosaic resistant vari
ety to transplant.
Recommended sweet or bell
peppers are Burpee’s Ford
hook, California Wonder and
Keystone Resistant Giant.
Trueheart Perfection is the re
commended pimento.
Unless your stomach has an
asbestos lining, two hot pepper
plants will provide all the heat
you need until next year. Ask
for Long Red Cayenne, Red
Chili, Hungarian Yellow Wax,
Mexican Chili or Chili Jalapeno
varieties.
Plant in a sunny location
soon after the last frost this
spring. Allow at least 18 inches
between plants and 24 inches
between rows.
Once your plants are healthy
and growing, hoe out a four
inch irrigation trench between
rows. To keep them healthy
and growing, water, weed and
cultivate every ten days during
the growing season.
Make one or two applica
tions of commercial fertilizer
after the plants are six inches
tall and before they blossom.
You’ll be picking peppers 65 to
85 days from the time you set
them out.
When a pepper is ripe, pick
it. Otherwise it will burden the
plant and sap its energy.
He joined the Paine faculty
in 1947, became dean, and
vice-president for
administrative affairs in 1967.
From 1950-1954, Dr.
Richardson served as
consultant to the State
Department of Education and
in 1954 returned to Paine. He
was also acting president of the
college from March to
December, 1974.
All of tiie retirees received
plaques which honored their
unique contributions to Paine.
