Potato Growers Collection

This Potato Kit is great for first time growers looking to start home growing without taking up too much space. Potatoes are perfect for all growers who want to plug holes in their growing season and topping up their staple stores. This kit contains 1kg of Potato 'Charlotte', 1kg of Potato 'Vivaldi' and, 5 potato growing bags perfect for the patio! Potato 'Charlotte': A late first early, producing good crops of medium sized oval tubers that are waxy when young and perfect hot or cold. Good blight and scab resistance. Great beginner variety. Colour - pale yellow. Shape - long oval. New, boil, steam or saute. Salad Type Potato 'Vivaldi': High yields of potatoes that are lower in carbohydrates and calories than other varieties, making them ideal for slimmers! Very versatile, with a unique texture. Colour - white. Shape - oval. New, boil, steam, mash, saute, bake or roast. Second Early. Our potato growing bags are an easy and convenient way to grow potatoes on your patio. These durable black/grey potato growing bags hold 8 litres of compost and can be re-used, folding flat over winter and requiring minimal storage space. The black and grey colouring prevents light reaching the developing potato tubers for healthy and delicious crops; and absorbs heat for a quick start in the spring. Following on from this year's technical trials, we now recommend planting a single tuber per 8 litre bag - we noted a 186% increase in yield! Bag dimensions: 8" x 11" We secure the earliest, freshest lifted tubers to start our potato despatches in December, ensuring the best quality stock for our customers. We recommend storing in a cool, dark place until ready to chit.
