Potato What?

My birthday was this last week and I got two really great presents form my brother. First of all he came down from the Seattle area to visit me and my family. Two, he's going to help me build A potato tower-- now you may ask what a potato tower is and I'll tell you. It mimics nature by being very compacted with lots of soil and nutrients however you can grow hundreds of pounds without taking arable land. It grows vertically, with layers. 

You could buy one but my brother and I are going it build it out of lumber. I was thinking of testing out the bio intensive sustainable agriculture way of cutting up the potatoes vs the the traditional way of letting them sprout and seeing which has more yield. Then based on the data I'll bring it into the farm for my final project. Explaining why that us the better method. It will use less arable land and many people at markets enjoy potatoes. It will provide lots of food!
