SEED POTATOES
Second Earlies
Second early seed potatoes mature in 110-120 days. Planted mid to late April, they will be ready for harvesting from early to mid August. Second early seed potatoes can be planted from mid March onwards as a rough guide, dependent on weather.
Compared to maincrop potatoes, rst earlies and second earlies are lower yielding, usually have smaller tubers, need less space and escape some of the diseases, such as blight.
Second Earlies are generally eaten as soon as they’re harvested – enjoyed as ‘new potatoes’.
Available in 25Kg Bags or 2Kg Pre-packs
