You read that right: Phytophthora seems to have no hold on this ideal red potato. Do not fertilize quickly, this variety should grow slowly and steadily. Fairly firm when cooked. Suitable for clay and sand. Resistant to potato cyst nematode A. Size 28\/40 contains ± 90 tubers per 2.5 kg, they produce 7 stems per 2 tubers and can be planted over 20 m². A customer wrote to us at the end of September 2014: \"This year, for the first time, I cultivated the blight-free Texla potato as a trial. I left it in the ground as long as possible and only harvested it this weekend. Although the foliage suffered from blight during cultivation, the tubers were virtually unaffected. I only found 4 affected potatoes (I had planted 2.5 kg of seed potatoes). I have a good harvest (see pictures). A successful trial indeed.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMAIN CROP VARIETY. \n\u003cbr\u003eA main crop variety means it can be harvested from September. Early planting can advance the harvest by several weeks. Planting time is from mid-April, when the soil has sufficient warmth. Pre-sprouting in light or in a large pot can be done earlier. Do not plant in too wet a spot, but in full sun. Main crop varieties can be affected by the dreaded potato blight (Phytophthora infestans). Some preventive measures include: ample spacing, fertilizing with potash, not spraying water over the plant, and possibly organic spraying with sulfur or silinal. The average planting distance is 70x40 cm, we recommend maintaining 80x40 cm to prevent diseases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- SEARCH-NAMES-START --\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesignations:\u003cbr\u003e\nLatin: Solanum tuberosum\u003cbr\u003e\nDutch: Aardappel\u003cbr\u003e\nEnglish: Potato\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- SEARCH-NAMES-END --\u003e","brand":"Vreeken","offers":[{"title":"1 kg","offer_id":44177453056053,"sku":"402500.1","price":5.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0606\/9092\/3573\/files\/402500.jpg?v=1750790313","url":"https:\/\/www.vreeken.nl\/en\/products\/402500-1","provider":"Vreeken's Zaden","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
