Just keep them in the house on a tray so the cut edges can dry; turn them so the cut sides are up so they can scab over. Don’t keep them in the dark, but don’t put them in a window, either - just regular indoor light for now.
Don’t water them or anything, just let them dry out. They should last a week or more like that.
I’ve purchased pre-cut potatoes in the past, and they were just shriveled things and they still produced just fine.
I did let them start to dry and they are in paper bags at the moment.
Im hoping to get them planted before we leave NH, but I need to find starw and stuff to cover them with.
My garden is heavy wet soil at the moment and Im thinking that the mulching method of growing them will work better than covering them with soil.
Keto Diet Is Best Way to Combat the Flu

Keto diet is best way to combat the flu image The flu season is upon usand the ketogenic diet is the best way to tackle it. The high-fat, low-carbs diet helps the immune system combat the virus, new research has discovered.
The diet activates a sub-set of T cells in the lungs that trap the virus and stops it spreading. The discovery is something of a scientific first because the T cells, known as gamma delta, hadn’t been thought to be part of the immune system’s response to influenza.
Researchers from Yale University made the discovery when they fed two dietsthe keto and a high-carb dietto laboratory mice who were then infected with the influenza virus. Those on the keto diet had a higher survival rate because it triggered the release of the gamma delta cells, while the standard high-carb diet didn’t have the same protective effect.
The release of the T cells must have something to do with the way the body burns fat, said lead researcher Visha Dixit.
The keto diet includes meat, fish, poultry and non-starchy vegetables.
