Cut the potato into pieces: make sure each piece is at least one inch, with at least 2 eyes/sprouts.

I use 23cm x 18cm pot, which is quite small to grow potato. I will probably transplant it to a bigger pot if successful.

Fertilize with organic fertilizer, larvie frass and egg shell.

Add one layer of soil to encourage root growth from the stem. Some sprouts are still pretty short, so I can't add too much soil.

The potato plant is not doing well, with some leaves turn brownish and drying up. Not sure is it due to lack of watering. I water the plant and layer up the soil.

All the potato dried up (I probably didn't water them enough).
