So they have a hydro plant with buckets of dirt around it, and the root with the spud growing stretched over and placed in the dirt?
I to never really considerd growing things like potatoes, carrots or onions (other than green onions) just because they are so inexpensive at the store. Root vegetables seem to keep well as long as they are kept cold and dry, so they seem to travel well and the quality at the store isn't bad.
