Potatoes are the perfect crop to grow in an area where you’ve just started a garden. Maybe you’ve reclaimed an area of lawn or have developed a bed that has been neglected. Potatoes are tolerant of heavy, acid soil and don’t need much care between planting and harvesting. If you mulch them well it will keep down the weeds and keep them moist. It’s a good time to sow potatoes now – there are seed potatoes available in the shops and the risk of frost has passed in Wellington.
