Potatoes (Solanum tuberosum) grow in vegetable gardens from U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 2 through 11, but they grow only as well as their roots. Potatoes need acidic soil with a pH between 5.5 and 6.0, and deep cultivation. Cultivate foot-wide rows up to 12 inches deep to allow plenty of room for roots. Plant eyes 12 inches apart and 3 to 4 inches deep in rows 2 1/2 to 3 feet apart. Roots will grow around and up the first few inches of the potato plant stem, so begin mounding soil up around the stems as soon as they begin growing.
