A great choice for gardeners looking to enjoy a quick, reliable harvest, Lady Crystl potatoes offer superb resistance to pests and diseases, ensuring a healthy crop with minimal effort.

When to Plant:
Plant Lady Crystl potatoes in early spring, typically from late March to April, once the risk of frost has passed and the soil is workable. Choose a sunny, well-drained area and prepare the soil by loosening it and adding organic matter. Chit the potatoes before planting by placing them in a light, cool spot for 2-3 weeks to encourage sprouting.

When to Feed:
Feed Lady Crystl potatoes with a balanced fertiliser or one specifically designed for potatoes. Apply the first feed around 4 weeks after planting, and a second dose when the plants start flowering to promote healthy growth and encourage a high yield.

When to Harvest:
Lady Crystl potatoes are typically ready for harvest in about 10-12 weeks, around June to July, once the plants have flowered and the foliage begins to die back.

How to Get the Best Results:
Ensure regular watering during dry periods and keep weeds at bay. Hill up the soil around the plants to protect the tubers from sunlight and boost yield.
