Harvest
Experience the versatility of Potato Jazzy, a fantastic variety that produces generous harvests of around 40 tubers per plant. Perfect for a range of culinary delights, from delicious potato salads to crispy roasties and creamy mash. Each 1kg bag contains approximately 12-15 seed tubers, ensuring you have plenty to grow.
Jazzy is easy to cultivate—simply plant one or two seed potatoes in each Gro-Sack for an abundant yield. Alternatively, you can grow them in your allotment beds, positioning each seed potato 20-30cm apart. Planting in March leads to impressive harvests in July and August.
To maximise your crop, hill up the surrounding soil halfway up the stems every 5-10cm of growth. This practice keeps the potatoes in the soil healthy and prevents them from greening, ensuring a premium harvest.
Summer Planting Potatoes (also known as Second Cropping or 'Christmas')
These potatoes undergo cold storage from December through to June/July, without the use of chemicals, making them eager to grow in warm summer temperatures. It’s essential to plant them at the optimum time while the days are still long to ensure they reach their full potential.
Although referred to as "Christmas Potatoes," they are ready for harvest in October and will not grow larger after that. If left in the ground or in containers and protected from harsh frosts, they can be stored until Christmas, providing you with delicious homegrown potatoes for your festive dinner!
How To Grow
Chitting’ seed potatoes before you plant will help get them off to a flying start. Simply place the tubers in a cool, light place to encourage them to produce shoots.
This process is recommended for first earlies, along with second earlies and salad varieties, but not so much for main crop potatoes.
Potatoes grow in most soil types but do especially well in a well-drained loam that’s not too heavy.
Ideally, prepare the ground during late autumn or early winter so that the frosts can break down the soil and dig in plenty of well-rotted organic matter, such as compost or manure, to create a reasonable depth. Avoid planting potatoes on ground that’s previously been used for this crop within the past three or four years to avoid the build-ups of pests, such as wire worm, and diseases.
Dig a V-shaped trench, or use a trowel to make individual deep holes, and place the potatoes inside. Rows running north to south will allow the sun’s rays to warm both sides of the crop.
Guide To Plant Sizes
Seed Potatoes
Our seed potatoes are meticulously graded to sizes ranging from 35mm x 35mm to 55mm x 55mm. This grading ensures that the smallest seed potatoes in the sample are unable to fall through a 35mm square, offering you consistent quality. While more modern varieties tend to have a more uniform size, our focus on unique and heritage varieties means you may encounter greater size variability within each pack. Rest assured, we will always provide the stated weight in your order.
The harvest you achieve will ultimately depend on your specific growing conditions. Generally, smaller potatoes yield smaller crops, while larger ones produce more abundant harvests. However, it’s important to note that regardless of size, 1kg of seed potatoes will yield a comparable overall harvest, whether the seed potatoes are small or large.
