You can start harvesting up to two weeks earlier by pre-sprouting or ‘chitting’ the seed potatoes. Place them in a light, frost free location with the bud end upwards. Egg boxes are ideal for this as it stops the potatoes falling over. This can be done in February.
The process can be started in a greenhouse but once the potatoes have sprouted they should be moved outdoors.
Potatoes cannot withstand frost. If there is a chance of frost, move the pot indoors overnight, or cover with garden fleece.
Use ‘early’ or salad potato varieties.
Re-plant in August for a Christmas crop!
