Ever considered growing your own potatoes? It’s great fun and very rewarding – plus you get to select which variety would suit your cooking requirements best. Some potatoes make tastier roasties, creamier mash or crispier chips – growing your own gives you more varieties to choose from.
We have a great range of seed potatoes available including organic and special varieties, in addition to the traditional first early, second early and main crop seed potatoes which we stock. If you need any help selecting which variety you want to grow, we have a seed potato information point where you can compare different varieties, plus knowledgeable staff will be on hand to help.
Lay out your potatoes in trays with the “rose end” up 
- Keep in a light, airy position until mid-march
- Plant tubers at least 6 inches deep
- Water regularly and keep weed free
- ‘Earth up’ by covering any shoots with soil
- Harvest in June – August
- And enjoy your delicious homegrown potatoes!
