Where are the seeds located on a potato?
Potatoes don't have seeds in the way that you might think of seeds, like those in apples or tomatoes. They are actually tubers, which are modified stems that grow underground.
Instead of seeds, potatoes grow "eyes" on their surface. These eyes are actually buds, and each one has the potential to grow into a new potato plant.
However, potatoes can produce true seeds if you allow the flowers to develop. These flowers produce small, green berries that contain the seeds. But these seeds are not the typical way to grow potatoes, as they are difficult to germinate and produce a wide variety of unpredictable plants.
So, to summarize, potatoes don't have seeds in the typical sense. They grow from buds located on their surface called "eyes".
