The potatoes I saved in my root cellar for planting this year are sprouting 
like anything.    Someone told me that even if I refrigerated them they'd 
sprout at this time of year.

I don't want to plant them all now, as they would be ready long before the 
root cellar will be cool enough to store them in, in fall.     Last year (my 
first real year of potato growing), I got the last of my potatoes planted 
on the 4th of July.   (Ones I purchased by mail.   They had not sprouted 
much.)   Still, they were ready long before the root cellar was cool, and I 
was 
lucky enough that the fall was cool and not too wet, so I left them in the 
ground till midOctober.

Is there something I can do to slow down or stop my seed potatoes from 
sprouting?   What do you do, in order to grow potatoes that are ready in fall?
