Avoid planting in soil where potatoes have grown for two years in succession as this will increase the risk of disease. Prior to planting, set the seed potatoes out in a cool, bright position (10°C) to allow them to sprout.
Prepare the planting area in a sheltered position in full sun on moist well drained soil.
Dig in plenty of well rotted manure.
Plant potatoes in rows at a spacing of 37cm (15"). Rows should be set out 75cm (2',5") apart.
Place the seed potatoes into 10cm (4") deep trenches and backfill the soil to refill the trenches.
When shoots reach 20cm (8"), mound up soil around the shoots leaving just a few cm showing.
Repeat this process after a further 3 weeks.

Lifted as a second early, its texture is a bit waxier and perfect for salads and boiling. It becomes a little flourier if left to mature and lifted later in the season, making it suitable for making chips, baking them, roasting them, boil them, mash them or stick them in a stew.

In order to yield the best results from your seed potatoes, it is recommended that you chit them before planting. This allows for the development of strong sprouts. It is not considered an essential step, it is highly recommended among experts especially for earlies. To chit potatoes, just place them, barely touching in a seed tray or a similar segmented tray with the rose end facing upwards. The rose is the end where the majority of the eyes occur on the potato. It is in the eyes, where the chits will form. Place the trays in a cool light area with temperatures averaging in and around 7°C. The aim of this chitting is to encourage the development of strong dark purple and green strong shoots. If the shoots are developing into long white thin string like shoots it may be a sign they are getting too much heat and not enough light.
If harvested when small (in June), they are particularly good for making potato salads but you can harvest from July if you prefer bigger potatoes.
