Do we need "starter" potatoes that we would need to buy from a nursery or catalogue to grow white baking type potatoes (NOT sweet potatoes)?  

Last year, we planted the eye portion of potatoes we had purchased at the grocery store and got many potatoes BUT they were all VERY small.  We wondered if we need special potatoes, rather than ones we buy at the grocery stores.

Thank you so much for your help!!!
