As my mom always did she would quarter up potatos and let them sprout ( usually in a dark area) then plant them 3 inches under the soil. Which needs to be loose. Do not over water, causes then to rot..

Potatoes are root vegetables (as are carrots, beets, onions, garlic, ginger, rutabagas, turnips, etc.)

Potato plants are usually grown from sprouted potatoes instead of seed (as are onion plants, garlic plants, etc.)
