First early seed potato released in 1992.

Winston seed potatoes, another Jack Dunnett variety, have proved to be both a commercial and an exhibition success all in one. Released in 1992, this white skinned variety has been unstoppable on the showbench circuit winning many titles year after year.

Winston produces high yields of smooth, shallow eyed, tubers that are short to oval in shape. Their flesh has a firm texture and a creamy colour, whilst their very low, dry matter would see Winston described as a wet potato.

These seed potatoes also have excellent all round disease resistance.

F irst earlies are typically ready for harvesting around 13-15 weeks from planting.

SOIL PREPARATION:

Choose a place in the garden which has not been used to grow garlic, onions, shallots or leeks for at least two years. The soil should be open, well drained and not have been manured for at least one year.

PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS:

Each potato should be 25cm from the next, with rows spaced 60cm apart. Always make sure the eyes are facing upwards. Drills should be 15cm deep.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS:

Water well in dry spells.

HARVESTING INSTRUCTIONS:

Harvest June-July . Dig up mature potatoes and store them in a cool, dry and dark location. Potatoes can be stored for several months. Tip: when harvesting, remove all foliage and small potatoes from the soil and discard, to avoid diseases on next year’s crop.

Plant as soon as possible after purchase. Keep in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place until planting. Keep free from frost.

Grown from cultivated stock.
