Planting & Growing Guide

• Sunlight: Requires full sun (6+ hours per day).
• Soil & Water: Prefers fertile, well-drained soil with a pH of 4.8 - 5.4. Maintain consistent moisture, especially during tuber formation.
• Spacing: Plant 12-15 inches apart with 30-36 inches between rows, at a depth of 3-5 inches.
• Hilling: Mound soil around plants once they reach 6-8 inches tall to protect tubers from sunlight exposure.
• Fertilization: Use a balanced fertilizer at planting and mid-season. Avoid excess nitrogen to prevent excessive foliage growth.

Harvesting Tips

• New Potatoes (Early Harvest): Harvest 60-70 days after planting, when plants start to flower, for small, tender potatoes.
