    Btw if you haven’t seen this guy before, he’s a Ukrainian youtuber called super sus and he does some interesting urban exploration. Not as much old soviet stuff these days for some reason but still going.

      That’s good to hear, but honestly, I’m amazed he’s still alive.

    Root cellars were amazing things. My grandparents would grow potatoes and store them for a year until next harvest.

    My potatoes are kept in the bag they were bought in. Last a lot longer there than all the other storage solutions I’ve tried like wooden bins, metal bins and refrigerator.

      Mine are stored in their bag, too, but seem to go mushy after two weeks, so I have been looking for other solutions. Is there anything in particular you’re doing when storing them in their bag?

        My parents would hang the bag in their pantry idk if that’s the right way or not.

          Okay, I’ll try it like this. The next thing I was going to try was sticking them in a box, individually packed in newspaper. I think straw is what was used in ye olden times, but newspaper would be easier to source these days

    I mean, you say that, but I once had some carrots which had turned black on the outside and when I peeled them, they still looked and tasted like fresh carrots.
