Odd looking potato sprouting

[Ozark Lady]

Last year, I lost my crop of potatoes due to the worst drought in 65 years to hit my area.

I saved potatoes from the Farmer's Market, and stored these in a far back corner of my kitchen for 'seed' potatoes.

I had also forgotten about some potatoes and they began to sprout in the potato bin.

I got the potatoes out, first the bin ones and cut the eyes and got them ready to plant.

Then, I remembered the stored ones, and got them out.

These are the most unusual looking sprouts that I have ever seen.

I would like to know if you have ever had potatoes forming tiny potatoes before you even plant them? I even have baby potatoes coming out of the inside of the 'seed' potatoes.

Do these look as weird to you all as they do to me? Someone that I showed them to thought GMO. Someone else thought simply they had broken dormancy early and were growing the only way they could. I honestly don't know, what to think.

Its not a bit unusual to see little new potatoes on the sprouts, but that one that looks like it popped out of the big tater is weird.
