Richards mix- 129RW
Details
In this mix of seed are cultivars that mostly throw to the purple and purple/white fleshed, some white and red can be expected also. Seed can be sown in autumn then transfer the tiny seedlings to pots and grow through winter in a frost free area, Springtime is the best time for those who get frosts. Allow each seedling to grow till as late as possible in the season, then its a matter of digging up each plant and assessing which plant has produced the best yield and for desirable shape and colours. The first year tubers are not always the largest its when they are replanted in the second season that they will produce greater yield. It's worth remembering that new TPS cultivars are virus free.
