> I'll bet you get a bigger yield when the weather is warmer.

The potatoes have been in the bag since about last June, warmer is a few days 
during the summer of 80+, most summer days are 70's and high 60's.<BG> I will 
spread the straw out over a garden bed later today, we didn't dig through it 
looking for potatoes because it was wet and matted together, so maybe there 
will be more hiding. The tires would be a great idea but we have a flight of 
stairs up to the house with no other access, also because last year was our 
first garden we didn't/don't have a lot of compost or good garden soil. I was 
trying to stretch what I had:-)
