So many potatoes

[unicornduke]

Not even for me. The potato variety trial we're going to be doing is just a huge amount of potatoes. like a coworker was at the place providing the potatoes and it was 800 pounds of seed potatoes.

so much.

and that's only from one source.

I think coworker got it down to only 35 varieties.

A mere 35?

At a constant mass per variety, that's thereabouts of 13 tonnes of planting potatoes.

I hesitate to predict the yield!

we honestly didn't need 800 pounds. It's only about half of the varieties.

We're probably going to give a bunch of them away because we don't need to plant that many. I'll probably take a bunch down to my parents' place to plant.

Now the other thing is that we have 42 pumpkin varieties to plant and we're doing ten hills of each variety.... so many pumpkins

Perhaps you shall have multiple instances of the supreme exemplar of pumpkins!

(four hundred and twenty hills is a lot of pumpkins.)
