The ones I buy from the supermarket grow roots after about a week.
Their are so many different varieties of potato , all originating from South America. Over time they've evolved or been genetically modified to our tastes and uses. The seed potatoes we buy are from a range of about ninety different organic varieties. They state as to whether they are good for storing or not. Usually the later the harvest the better or longer the storage time. With supermarket potatoes I would have no idea unless they have the variety writen on the packaging.
