Why Grow First Early Seed Potatoes?
Maturing just after our extra early seed potatoes, first early seed potatoes are ideal for those who want to enjoy new potatoes at the start of summer. Varieties like Premiere, Duke of York, Foremost, and Pentland Javelin are some of the earliest potatoes in the year, maturing as little as 12 weeks after planting. They’re versatile, too, and can be grown in traditional garden beds or containers – perfect if you only have a small balcony or patio.
Growing your own first early is fun and rewarding for the whole family. It’s an excellent way to teach children about where their food comes from, and the care that goes into growing it. The anticipation of the first harvest, with its promise of fresh, tasty new potatoes, makes the effort worthwhile.
