Right, at the level of the seed piece and somewhat higher, the tuber-bearing filaments come off the stalk as long as it is kept covered with soil or mulch. Generally speaking once the stalk is quite green it will no longer make tubers from that point, which simply means the plant will put more energy into fewer tubers not necessarily less yield. I make a shallow trench to put the seed into and cover with one or two inches of soil. In the bottom of the trench first goes compost unless the ground is fairly rich. A sprinkling of epsom salt is good and wood ashes if you have any. When the plant is vigorously growing N can be supplied with urine diluted 5 or 10 to one with water. Potatoes like tomatoes are highly symbiotic with mycorhizzae. If you can find old wood chips or twigs with fungi on them toss them in the compost in the trench and soak the trench good of course. One can also buy the spores by mail and inoculate the compost or rotted manure, etc. Once the garden area is well grown out with myco you're all set if you don't till too much, keep the OM up, don't let the ground get bone-dry with means don't let it be bare for long periods. Even weeds help. Every common crop family except brassica needs the myco's for optimum health.
