Potato Rocket (Extra Early Seed Potato)
Product Description
If you're seeking the earliest and most bountiful potato harvest, look no further than our high-quality rocket seed potato. This vigorous extra early seed potato boasts remarkably speedy growth and excellent heavy-yielding crops, delivering an abundance of round, white-fleshed tubers.
Rockets are prized for their firm, waxy texture, uniform shape and delightfully creamy flavour. These versatile potatoes are delicious in salads or simply boiled and served with a knob of butter. They're best enjoyed as soon as possible after lifting.
As a disease-resistant potato variety, rocket seed potatoes are ideal for beginner gardeners as well as exhibiting at shows. They’re known for being one of the ‘earliest earlies’ available – after planting in March, they’ll often crop as early as the first week of June.
To maximise your Rocket potato harvest, we recommend chitting prior to planting out. This process encourages seed potatoes to sprout, allowing them to establish more readily and leading to bigger crops. Simply place them in an old egg box, blunt end up, until the shoots are approximately 1 ½ to 2½ cm (½ to 1in) long.
