Storing seed potatoes

When you get your seed potatoes you put them in a cool but frost free place where they get some light but not direct sunlight. The potatoes will then grow short stubby shoots to get them off to a fast start when planted out.

If you do keep your seed potatoes in the dark, they still do need to be kept cool or you will end up with long  sprouts on them which brake off when you try to plant them!

One good option if you don't want to start chatting them yet is old egg boxes which you then close the lid on. Works really well for me.

I put them in egg boxes labelled with the name of the potato variety. I put these in my cellar which is cold and frost free but I dont close the lids. With lids open they stay colder and if they do decide to chit there is light so you dont end up with those long white brittle chits but healthy green ones.
