In Reply to: Planting early spuds! posted by samn40 on February 20, 2013 at 16:49:08:
I have cut potatoes before, but we prefer to keep small potatoes as seed. Some breeds of spuds take small potato disease when cut too close to planting time...maybe our ground is too cold and wet!. These spuds are 'British Queen' variety and one of the best tasting earlies but they don't have many eyes so it is not good to cut them. Long buds we do break off, we like a short strong bud if possible with even some leaves forming. Another thing, Sweetfeet. We like our potatoes to get a real steeping with rain before digging so we can bring them in dirty...We always think they keep better and come out of the barn fresh and as close as possible to the way they were dug. Older housewives here won't buy clean spuds! Sam
