Red Pontiac Seed Potatoes - 5 Pounds - for 2025 Planting Seeds Certified for Growers Short Tuber Red Skin Potato Growing Home Farm Sustainable Healthy Vegetable

I’m thrilled with my Red Pontiac and Yukon Gold potatoes growing in 5-gallon buckets on my patio, perfect for my zone 6b/7a short season. The potatoes arrived with dirt on them, which prevents drying and preserves beneficial bacteria. The Yukon Gold bag had slight moisture, so I sprayed them lightly with 3% hydrogen peroxide and let them dry without rinsing as a precaution against unwanted bacteria. This is my first time planting food, and the plants are thriving in containers—I can’t wait to harvest!✅Plant date: 4-17-25Bucket 1: Yukon Gold (brown skin color)Bucket 2: Yukon Gold✅Plant date: 4-19-25Bucket 3: Red Pontiac (red skin color)✅Soilless Mix Homemade - based on James Prigioni’s recipe on YouTube🔹3:2:.5:.5 ratioCoco coir 3 (5gal buckets)Mushroom compost 2 (5gal buckets)Vermiculite 0.5 (5gal buckets)Perlite 0.5 (5gal buckets)I did half because I only had one 40lb / .75 CF bag of mushroom compost, and it filled one bucketCoco coir 1.5Mushroom compost 1Vermiculite 0.25Perlite 0.25This halved mix was enough for 3 buckets.✅Nutrient mix per 5-gallon bucketSOP - 1/2 tsp (2.25 g)FeSOHO - 1.5 tspBone meal 1/4 cupShultz (10-12-12) 1 TBSBlood meal 2 tspKelp 2 TBSThis nutrient mix is good for plants requiring nitrogen in the early growing stage. For instance, it’s not good for carrots.🛑It’s not a good fertilizer mix to use every 2-3 weeks on container potatoes because the nitrogen is too high.✅Use a liquid water-soluble fertilizer every 2-3 weeks until foliage turns yellow, usually two weeks before harvest. Fish emulsion, Morbloom 0-10-10, or any water-soluble fertilizer with very low N and high PK ratios should work.✅Layering indeterminate potatoes - based on Gary Pilarchik on YouTubeI did 2 potatoes on the bottom and 3 towards the top.🛑Don’t do this with determinate potatoesWalmart: Food grade bucketsDollar tree: colorful baskets for drainage

All of the potatoes are a good size and in excellent condition! None have any soft spots or rotting and have more eyes than I've ever seen! Very excited about these 😁

Very unhappy with the quality. I purchased one set and they came wet and mushy.I thought this was just a bad batch and decided to order another set. This time the potatoes were even worse. They were so soft I couldn’t pick them up in the netted bag.I will not be ordering from this company.

The seeds just arrived super fast! They seem like they are in great shape and ready to go in my grow bag! I will update on thier quality of growth! The company itself seems awesome, providing some bonus sunflower seeds. I will buy from them again
