the meaning of “hoe one's own potato”
hoe one's own potato = Each one sweeps the snow from his own doorstep and doesn't bother about the frost on his neighbor's roof. 个人自扫门前雪，莫管他人瓦上霜 ，right？hoe one‘s own potatoes = hoe one's row ?

Go here to see a hoe:

This is not a standard expression in English. I don't know any connection with sweeping snow. You harvest the potatoes by hoeing them. I suppose it means: "You reap what you sow."
