Learn how to speed up potato sprouting and some more facts in the following slides.

Place the potatoes in an egg carton, ensure that the dimples are facing upwards, and place the carton in a sunny spot.

Chit the potatoes in light

Keep the potatoes in the dark

Keeping potatoes in the dark can also lead to sprouting, although the sprouts will be long and fragile.

Use ripening produce

You can accelerate sprouting by placing potatoes near apples and onions.

Increase humidity

Place the potatoes in the fridge where the humidity levels are higher to encourage sprouting.

Place the potatoes in water

Cut the parts with dimples, place them in the water facing upwards, and ensure there’s enough indirect light to incite sprouting.
