Planting / Seed Potatoes
Pink Fir apple
This kipfler style variety produces small to medium sized oddly shaped potatoes with waxy yellow flesh and superior flavour. Great for roasting, salads, boiling. Very productive.
Sowing time –
Cool climates - After last frost August-October
Temperate Climates - Mid July - October
Warm / Tropical climates - April-August
Prefer sunny position, prepare bed deeply at least 25cm down, soil should be friable to avoid odd shaped potatoes.
Sow in 10cm deep furrows with 25 cm between tubers and 75cm between rows. Fertilise well.
Large tubers can be cut so long as each half has an ‘eye’ or sprout
