potatoes

hi anthfez
i have heard from gardeners that just plant any old seeding potato and get results.
i have always bought proper seed potatoes from a garden centre and followed the instructions.
maybe you could experiment with both types and see what happens, i would like to know how you get on .......steve

i;m new to growing anything but i did grow some potatoes last year from some that had shoots,then this year i grew some from seed potatoes i bought,i found the first ones from the supermarket best so i dont know why i'm told to buy seed,hope this helps.
