Potato Patio Starter Kit

Grow a bumper crop of potatoes on your patio!
Grow pound after pound of mouth watering new potatoes on your very own doorstep with our special Potato Starter Kit. The kit comprises three sturdy Potato Buckets and three specially selected varieties of potato tubers ideal for growing in them. So you can look forward to a bumper harvest in the smallest of places from as early as June onwards. All you need to do is provide the compost. Potato Buckets - Grow a bumper crop of potatoes - even on a patio! Potato Buckets are the perfect size, shape and colour (absorbing the sun's heat) to quickly produce a really heavy crop. Plant 3 tubers in a part filled pot and keep topping up the compost as they grow, then simply tip them out when they are ready. Great for growing runner beans and tomatoes too. Height 40cm (15¾"); diameter 40cm (15¾"). Approximate capacity 40 litres. Plus 5 tubers each of: Red Duke Of York (1st Early) - This heritage variety is one of the few red skinned earlies. Has a fine flavour and bakes and chips well; Vivaldi (2nd Early) - A highly sought-after variety, widely appreciated for its taste and texture. Produces high yields of attractive potatoes that are lower in carbohydrates and calories than other varieties, making it ideal for slimmers!; Charlotte (Salad) - Classic salad potato against which others are judged! Matures as a latish first early, producing good numbers of medium sized oval tubers with a very fine flavour. Very waxy when young and perfect hot or cold. Good blight and scab resistance.

3 Potato Buckets + 15 Potato Tubers (5 of each variety)

Delicious potatoes fresh from the garden .... and so easy to grow!
Growing potatoes is easy provided you follow a few simple rules and the first of these is to plant the highest quality potato seed. All Dobies seed potatoes originate from specialist potato growers and are grown in the climate and conditions necessary to ensure the seed is healthy and free from pests and diseases. The crops are inspected in the field and after harvest by qualified inspectors from the Certifying Authority. We've been supplying seed potatoes for over 25 years and, by trialling them each year, we have gained a thorough understanding of how they grow and taste.
ORDERING YOUR SEED POTATOES: Buy 2 or more 3kg packs & SAVE £1.00 per pack which will be deducted from your basket. This reduction applies to any combination of 3kg packs ordered.
Quality Control - Once they have passed their inspections, our seed potatoes receive a certification number which you will see on the bag label. They are size graded within riddle size 35mm x 60mm which eliminates all over large and very small tubers although of course this does not mean that they are all identical as the precise nature of the seed is largely dependant on growing season and variety. Before packing the seed undergoes a final visual inspection to remove damaged and substandard tubers. Note: a 3kg pack of a typical variety should contain approximately 30 potato tubers.
Order Despatch - Potatoes are sent separately in special secure cartons, and will be despatched from December onwards. Please note that we monitor weather conditions daily during critical periods and do not despatch when frosty conditions are forecast. Orders of seed potatoes incur a carriage charge of £3.95.
