To get started, a single layer of seed potatoes are planted, a few inches of compost and rice straw is added and then as the vines grow taller, they are topped off with more rice straw for the tubers to grow in (no more soil is added).oosen the soil of the planting area, place your potatoes on top, cover with 4â³ to 6â³ of straw. As the plants grow, add more straw. For harvesting, just push the straw aside, take what you want and put the straw back.
Add loose soil around the base of the potato plants as they grow to keep the tubers from turning green during the growing process. Every few weeks, add more loose soil around the potato plants to ensure that the tubers stay well under the ground as they grow. By the time the potatoes are ready to harvest, you will have added as much as 6 inches of soil around the growing potato plants.
