When I opened my Burpee catalog, and turn to the potato section. I didn’t realize there were so many kinds. You have the; Yukon Gold, Swedish Peanut Fingerling, Kennebec, Red Pontiac, Red Gold, Huckleberry, All Blue, Daisy Gold, and I haven’t mentioned the Sweet Potatoes yet. Oh, My!Growing Red Pontiac Potatoes is rather simple. Keep in mind, I only had them in my garden one year. My garden is mostly sand, which worked great. Hard compacted soil will prevent the potato to grow. So make sure to work the soil often.
Instead of making a trench to place the seed in, I prefer to work the ground level soil. Lay the seed at ground level, and make a mound on top of the seed.
