Growing tips

Pre-sprouting is recommended for higher yield and greater resistance to diseases. This potato variety is very suitable for the so-called plucking. This means that around the time of flowering (from June) you can possibly already carefully harvest individual tubers from the potato bushes, as they are very shallow under the soil in the mounded rows.
