If you are reading this, you or someone you know may have been told they need to have a hysterectomy and also have their ovaries removed. This has been a controversial issue for many years, but until recently most doctors recommended removal of the ovaries after about age 45.

The growing time for red potatoes can be from 70 to 120 days, depending on the variety you choose to plant and what size you like your potatoes.
Potatoes are a tuber vegetable that thrive during the cooler weeks of the growing season. Potatoes grow best at soil temperatures of 60 to 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Soils over 80 degrees are not conducive to tuber formation, so gardeners must plant potatoes as early as possible in the spring to harvest before the soil warms. Potatoes grow most successfully in the cooler regions, although gardeners in warmer zones may harvest potatoes in cooler months of the year.
