pink fir seed potato

Pink Fir Apple seed potatoes are a long and knobbly shaped heritage potato variety maintained by JBA. Due to their unique shape, Pink Fir Apple tubers are best eaten either with their skins on or served as delicious, individual chunky chips. Even when they have been stored, these seed potatoes retain a new potato taste well into the New Year.

Maincrop seed potatoes mature in 125-140 days and, if planted in late April, can be harvested by mid August.

SOIL PREPARATION:
Ideal soil conditions for growing potatoes are sandy loam soils which can be enriched with lots of organic matter to aid water retention and provide suitable feeding for you potatoes.
Heavy clay soils can be improved by adding sharp sand and lots of organic matter in the autumn of the year so that the new soil mixture can be exposed to frost which will help break up the soil structure and make it easier to work with.
If you are unable to get organic matter you can add compost to the area you wish to plant your potatoes in.
PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS:
Each potato should be 35cm from the next, with rows spaced 70cm apart. Always make sure the eyes are facing upwards. Drills should be 15cm deep.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS:
Water well in dry spells.
