Marfona Seed Potatoes (Second Early)
(10 Tubers)
Delivery Info: Available to order now for delivery in Feb/Mar. Please see FAQs for up-to-date delivery info.
Planting/Growing Advice: Plant in early spring approx 10cm apart in pots, containers, raised beds and any traditional veg patches. Make sure the soil/compost has good drainage.
When to harvest: When the leaves start to turn yellow you can check to see if they are ready to harvest. You may be able to tell if they are ready from the crown of the bulb peeping above the surface of the soil. If not, carefully dig one or two up to have a look with a hand fork.
*Transplants suitable for organic growing.

Big potatoes, and big yields
Marfona produces a high yield of fairly large potatoes that will store well. You should harvest some good sized potatoes for baking, so if jacket potatoes are your faves, then this is the variety for you. It is a second early variety with reasonably good resistance to both scab and blight.
Number of tubers (seed potatoes): 10
Variety: Marfona
In the kitchen: Great for baking, mashing, roasting
Delivery: We start shipping seed potatoes in February
