The Potato Method You're Probably Not Using

Save reference
What to study

Desired Outcome

A small mountain of clean potatoes is what any grower hopes to dig up. Here they spill out of what looks like cardboard, which isn't how most people grow them. 'Probably Not Using' confirms it's different, so you want to see how.

How the packaging works
Title

'You're Probably Not Using' tells experienced growers there's still something they've missed, and 'Method' promises a whole way of growing rather than a single tip.

Thumbnail

The heap of potatoes gets half the frame to itself, so the size of the harvest does the talking, and the cardboard hints at the method without explaining it.

Remix this

When your method looks odd but produces a big result, show the result spilling out of the odd part. Keep the thumbnail wordless, and let the title tell viewers they're probably missing it.
