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 reason for this was that removal of the ovaries would prevent women from developing ovarian cancer.
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.
During that time, some moisture will dry from the potatoes, and their skin will become firmer. Potatoes naturally form sprouts 30 to 140 days after harvest. You can delay the sprouting by storing your potatoes in a location with 40 to 45 degree Fahrenheit temperatures and 85 percent humidity. Keep them away from light sources, which trigger sprouting.
