    I planted potatoes two years ago and cannot remember what I bought for the fertilizer that we hilled up with dirt on top of the plants. It was two words like Sodium-Something or Nitrogen-something. Can anyone help me...

    A good potato fertilizer should contain low levels of Nitrogen, and high levels of phosphorus Sam. So maybe you are thinking of one that said nitrogen phosphate? Hope this helps you out. :stew1:
