HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT SEED POTATOES

"SEED potatoes" have been specially selected for growing. They are certified virus free and will also not have bacterial, fungal and nematode infections.
They have "eyes" and are available in July/August.

Once planted they start to sprout, producing roots and leaves.

Choose small, healthy good-looking ones and keep them in a paper bag in the dark until they have some strong sprouts.

They are then ready to plant.

A limited supply of seed potatoes is available at Soil for Life Training and Resource Centre in Cape Town. Phone Tanya on 021 794 4982 or e-mail info@soilforlife.co.za
