Looks like a Russet tater,, they do get Big,, I should take some of my Reds and Yukons this year I have at least one on each hill that is bigger than a soft ball,, they really grew this year for me,, sadly the four hail storms kept taking out the vines so there are not a huge amount of spuds on each hill but still a good crop

How long do your plow points last? We sold some roll over plows and the owners were telling how many acres they could get out of a set of plow points. Of course they all liked how easy they were to change. But all our plows came with coulters.
 
A lot depends on the ground . If they are hard surfaced I?ve gotten 250 acres and still looked pretty good . The non hard surface Ones burn up pretty fast in conditions like this
 
I haven?t done yet . But I?ll get a couple this time of year I I eat lots of spuds 🥔 then again I eat a lot of taters all year
 
Yip it?s a norkotah which is a breed of russet . One went by on the way into the cellar that made this one look like the baked potatoes 🥔 you get at a restaurant. I really like reds and softball size Is about perfect . Yukon golds are a very good tasting spud as well . And another favorite Of mine Is the shepody
