How do you grow a potato?
Potatoes have what they call 'eyes' which grow on them, these are actual shoots for the plant, simply divide (cut) the potato with a couple of eyes on each piece, dig a hole about 7 inches below ground and plant. When the potato begins to sprout you will want to fertilize and 'hill' them up. Hilling them is simply adding a hill of dirt to the tops of them. Potatoes are tubers and as such will produce their fruit underground. In the fall you dig all around the potato to get the new potatoes.

Why do plants need repotting?
Repotting is essential for plant growth. If a plant is left for too long in it's pot it may become root-bound and stop growing. Root-bound means, in a potted plant, that the plant has over-grown it's pot. The space in the pot has become filled with the roots of the plant and there is little or no dirt left. If there is no dirt left there is no substance for nutrients and the plant will stop growing. Depending on the plant, typically repotting consists of trimming the excess roots at the root ball, leaving 2-3 inches of roots and repootting the newly trimmed plant. It may be a good idea to use a bigger pot, again depending on the plant.
Why are my potato plants growing what looks like baby potatoes on the plant branches like cherry tomatoes grow?
Potato tubers will form along the base of a growing potaote plant. This is the basis of a trick I use to make harvesting tubers easy- as the potato plant grows, bury the base of the plant in weed-free hay or dirt; then, later in the season, you will be able to reach under the loose soil or hay and pluck baby tubers from the stem. Be sure ands bury tuber-bearing otherwise the tuber skin will turn green; a green tuber contains toxins that can upset your stomach. After potato plants flower, some varieties will produce small green fruits that resemble green cherry tomatoes, each containing up to 300 true seeds. By finely chopping the fruit and soaking it in water, the seeds will separate from the flesh by sinking to the bottom after about a day (the remnants of the fruit will float). All new potato varieties are grown from seeds, also called "true seed" or "botanical seed" to distinguish it from seed tubers. Potato fruit contains large amounts of the toxic alkaloid solanine, and is therefore unsuitable for consumption.
