Growing tips

Keep frost-free. Pre-sprout at approx. 15°C. The potato should only be planted as deep as the tuber is thick, in planting holes filled with mature compost. As soon as the plant protrudes approx. 10 cm from the soil, it should be mounded for the first time. This should be repeated regularly so that the potato is covered with soil at all times.
