My first time growing potatoes and it couldn’t have been easier! I planted the Purple Vikings in 5 gallon buckets, added some Darn Good fertilizer, and watered as needed. None of my plants flowered so I worried that something had gone wrong, but the plants were huge, lush, and had no pests. I waited two weeks after the plants died down, then emptied the buckets to find a huge amount of beautiful purple potatoes. Delicious! I will definitely be planting more of these next season, but I’m anxious to try other varieties as well. Thank you San Diego Seed Co.! (Orange County, CA zone 10a)
