Answer 2

yes, you need a mixture of bleach and olive oil. The bleach will open the spuds pores while the olive oil will nuture the potatoe. place the potatoe in the mixture, it doesnt need to be deep, a couple milimeters will do. If you would like to try another approach and grow potatoes to eat... potatoes will grow inside a hessian bag that has been partly filled with a mixture of straw and fertiliser (something like blood and bone, cow manure ). Put in some straw mixture, add some potatoes and cover with more of the straw mixture. Roll down the top of the bag to allow light and air to get to what is inside and give it a drink. As the tops of the leaves rise above the straw layer, add more straw. This will encourage the plant to set more potatoes. Once the bag is full just water occassionally and when the plants die down...... upend that bag and collect your potatoes!

It is NOT true that all plants/fruits need sunlight to grow. Base on my second year experimentation.. i put a sliced potato (the other half is inside the cabinet , the other one is near the window where it can get sunlight) with a 5ml water in the tissue.. i put there the sliced potato then waited for 1 week.. the potato inside the cabinet sprout... this only tells.. potatoes doesn't need sunlight at all.....just think of how a potato sprout under the soil.. where there is no presence of sunlight.
