Imagine eating your own new potatoes on Christmas Day These special Kestrel seed potatoes have been stored at 4 degrees Celsius to ensure that they are kept in great condition for you to plant between June and August so that you can enjoy the fresh taste of new potatoes on Christmas Day. Here is how to do it: After you have received your seed you should place them out to chit for a couple of weeks just so they break dormancy and this will allow them to grow quickly. We recommend that these potatoes are planted in potato planter bags so they can be kept indoors when periods of blight are possible in late summer and later in the year when frost is forecast. 3 to 4 potatoes per bag is sufficient and some added fertiliser is recommended. Each 1kg pack will consist of approximately 12-15 potato tubers which will produce approximately 10kg (22lbs) of tasty, fresh potatoes. These seed potatoes will be despatched from July to mid August.
