answersplease77@lemmy.world 4 weeks agoaccording to my calculations if I started planting <n-number> potatos in my farm that would yield = the sum of times of planting (n^n-th) * (n^n-th) potatos = n^2n-th , basically infitity^infinity of potatos in no time

I grew up on a farm for a while, we had potatoes. The way we usually replanted is just cut up the potatoes into quarters and then halve them giving 8 ‘seeds’ per potato, so using that method it would increase by a factor of 8 each planting.

If you assume, that every plant only grows one potato. Depending on what kind of potato you plant a single plant can give about a dozen potato’s, so this would come down to a factor of 96 per cycle.
