Maincrop


Maincrop potato varieties produce larger varieties for baking and roasting. For best results, 'chit' the tubers and then plant up from March to mid May. The potatoes will be ready to harvest approximately 20 weeks after planting. Maincrop potatoes are best grown in the ground, where they will have more space. 'Sarpo' potatoes offer exceptional resistance to blight, a common problem in potatoes.

Potato : Mayan Gold

Potato 'Mayan Gold'

Solanum tuberosum

  Customer Rating

Early maincrop.

Yellow skinned, long, oval, tubers with a deep golden flesh, a unique nutty flavour, and an extremely creamy, yet dry texture. This exclusive early maincrop Potato ‘Mayan Gold’ has proven exceptionally popular with chefs and the restaurant trade. Fantastic for chips and roast potatoes with a crispy texture and fluffy centres. Superb flavour when cooked in its skin, and for all cooking uses except boiling, as tubers tend to disintergrate. Height and spread: 60cm (24”).

Potato : Juliette

Potato 'Juliette'

Early maincrop.

Potato ‘Juliette’ produces long, oval, yellow-skinned and fleshed, waxy tubers, with good resistance to common scab, netted scab and golden eelworm too. A heavy crop can be lifted as an early maincrop or left in the ground for longer as a second early. Whether eaten hot or cold, Potato ‘Juliette’ is delicious boiled or steamed. Height and spread: 60cm (24”).
