doubledug's Red Pontiac Potato Care Instructions

Try for a seed spacing of at approx. 11.7 inches (30.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 5.85 inches (15.0 cm) if planning to sow direct.

Ensure you have enough space in your garden for this plant - Potato 'Red Pontiac' is known for growing to a height of approximately 1.20 metres (that's 3.90 feet in imperial).

Your garden has full sun light - try to position in a partial sun location instead.

Remember to water moderately.

Your garden has neutral soil (7.0) which is not within the known ideal range for Potato 'Red Pontiac'. The recommended range is between pH 5.0 and 6.0 (acidic soil) - you may have to reassess the suitability of this plant for your garden.

Potato 'Red Pontiac' tends to be susceptible to Early Blight so keep a note of any developing symptoms.

More information about Red Pontiac Potato is available in the Folia gardener's wiki. All Red Pontiac Potato Care Instructions have been kindly provided by our members.
