Kurt Forman asked:
Those of you who mulch your potatoes, do you use a mechanical potato digger?  Does the mulch, particularly round bale mulch, interfere with the digger at all?  Or is it decomposed enough to fall through the digger chain?

 Kurt, we got the Cecchi and Magli SP100 last year, and found we needed to remove the mulch, with the mowed potato vines, before we could harvest successfully.
