I was aware that green potatoes were bitter and could make you sick, but I didn't know about it having that poison all the time. 1-2 years is all I was interested in (for use the following spring or the next spring)

Bummer. Regardless, I appreciate the help. Thanks

Some types of seeds can be stored for years...I really doubt the "Eye" can be stored long. Plus, seeds allow for selective breeding.

I just checked, there are multiple sprouts pushing through the soil. Once I have a plant, how can I get seeds? Or can I?

No, I planted it already but the area around the sprouts looked like a scared cat but white It was also starting to look like a prune.

I put a russet potato in a clear plastic container with a dish of water. It had sprouted potato tubers(I think that's the right term) but I waited too long... it now has roots and white fur. Is there a reasonable change I can still get a plant out of it, or should I just start over?

The temperature will be the same as my home, 70-80F depending on time of year(yes, I know worms start to die between 80 and 85) I plan on only adding uncooked/unseasoned vegetable pealing or vegetables that have gone bad like the rotten potato I found yesterday.(Might add the occasional yard...

Protective of earthworms? Ok… I have put them in a plastic container with holes drilled into the bottom and something to catch any water drainage. I keep them in the dark in a cool room (not cold) I plan to filter out the rich soil and feed it to plants while feeding them non-acidic kitchen...

Yes

I bought a different kind of worms and transported them home and exactly the same way, and they’re perfectly fine three days later

They died before I remove them from the original container I bought them in.Edit: I didn’t even water them before they died… And the soil was slightly damp, not dry not wet.

I can understand them dying within a few days of getting them if they were in the process of dying. But they were wiggling before I bought them. If I had dead worms that were otherwise normal, then I wouldn’t be confused.

I bought earth worms on two days and the first set of earth worms had turned into slime before I bought it(I didn’t know until after) and the second set of earthworms turned into slime within a few days. They also smelled TERRIBLE! What may have caused that and is that going to be a problem for...

What?

The video is the testing.
