What Benefits Do I Get Using Jute Potato Planter Bags?
Using a potato planter bag allows you to start growing potatoes much earlier in the year as you can protect them from frost. You can also spread your potato harvest over a longer period by using multiple bags and planting up new seed potatoes 4-6 weeks apart.
When your potatoes are ready to harvest, simply lift the flap and reap your rewards
How Do I Use the Jute Potato Planter Bag?
Using a potato planter bag is really simple and non labour intensive:
- 1. Fill the planter bag 1/3 full with compost and plant 3-5 seed potatoes in each bag (space evenly).
- 2. Cover with 4-5" of compost and water well.
- 3. Keep the compost moist and well-watered.
- 4.Every time green leaves and shoots appear above the compost "earth up" (cover with compost) until the bag is full.
When Should I Plant Potatoes?
The following guidelines cover planting times of seed potatoes (tubers):
- First earlies: Around late March
- Second earlies: Early to mid-April
- Maincrops: Mid- to late April
Timings vary slightly depending on early season weather and where you are in the country. Using If you are planting in containers, start even earlier.
Potatoes like a sunny site protected from frosts. New foliage is vulnerable to frost damage in April and May.
When Are My Potatoes Ready to Harvest?
Harvesting potatoes is a case of understanding which varieties you plan to plant:
- First early potatoes: Should be ready to lift in June and July
- Second early potatoes: July and August
- Maincrop potatoes: From late August through to October
Garden tip:
- With early potato varieties: Wait until the flowers open or the buds drop; your potatoes are ready to harvest when they are the size of hens' eggs.
- With maincrop potato varieties, for storage: Wait until the foliage turns yellow, then cut it and remove it. Don't harvest your crop until at least 10 days later and leave them to dry for a few hours before storing.
- With maincrop varieties, you can get a higher yielding crop by removing flowers as they appear. This will divert the plant's energy into producing more potatoes and instead of producing any useless seeds.
