About This Variety

Meet This Variety

When beginning a seed-grown bed for the season, Potato (Solanum tuberosum) is an annual garden crop for vegetable gardens. Give plants full sun and fertile, well-drained soil as they establish.

As the seed-starting period begins, Sow in prepared growing medium when it reaches the recommended germination range. Keep the soil evenly moist while seedlings establish, then harvest when the crop reaches the appropriate stage for eating, with a patient routine focused on early plant development after sowing.

A practical Potato choice for vegetable gardens.
