Care Tips

Potatoes are rarely grown from seeds any more as they are much more successfully grown from “seed potatoes”. These are commercially grown and easy to plant to get great crop returns. Potatoes will thrive in a sunny, well-drained location which has been enriched with compost or manure over the winter. It is important that you move the location of your potatoes each year to fresh soil.
