Planting Instructions:

• Seed Preparation:

  • Cut seed potatoes into pieces, ensuring each piece has at least one or two "eyes" (sprouts).
  • Allow the cut pieces to dry for 24-48 hours before planting to reduce the risk of rot.

• Sowing:

  • Timing: Plant seed pieces in early spring, 2-4 weeks before the last expected frost date.
  • Depth: Dig trenches 4-6 inches deep and place seed pieces 12 inches apart, with rows spaced 24-36 inches apart.
  • Covering: Cover seed pieces with 2-3 inches of soil initially.

• Germination:

  • Potato plants typically emerge 2-4 weeks after planting.
  • As plants grow, gradually hill up soil around the base of the plants, eventually creating mounds about 8 inches high.

• Transplanting:

  • Direct sowing is recommended for potatoes. If starting indoors, ensure seedlings are hardened off properly before transplanting outside.
  • Follow the same spacing and hilling instructions as for direct sowing.

Care and Maintenance:

• Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during tuber formation, but avoid waterlogging.
• Mulching: Apply mulch to retain soil moisture, control weeds, and protect tubers from sunlight.
• Hilling: Continue to hill soil around plants as they grow to protect developing tubers from light and to support the plants.
