Potato 'Red Pontiac'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys partial sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Red Pontiac is thought of as tender, so it is really important to ensure that the outside temperature is well above freezing before planting or moving outdoors. Ensure your soil is loamy and clay and has a ph of between 5.0 and 6.0 as Potato is a moderately acidic soil to weakly acidic soil loving plant.

Look to ensure a distance 11.7 inches (30.0 cm) between seeds when sowing - bury at a depth of at least 5.85 inches (15.0 cm) deep.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Red Pontiac about 14 days before your last frost date.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Red Pontiac is a tender plant.
