{"product_id":"foremost-seed-potatoes","title":"Foremost Seed Potatoes","description":"\u003cp\u003eForemost seed potatoes, originally called Suttons Foremost, are a heritage potato variety first added to the national variety list in 1954. Foremost quickly became popular with gardeners due to its excellent flavour and resistance to breaking apart when boiled. However, its average yields and disease resistance meant it never became widely grown commercially. Foremost does have good resistance to common scab. The potatoes are short to oval in shape, with white skin and waxy white flesh. Winner of the RHS Award of Garden Merit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePlanting \u0026amp; Growing Instructions:\n\u003cbr\u003e1. Optional Chitting: Stand seed potatoes eyes-up in a cool, bright place for 4-6 weeks to sprout before planting. Tubers may turn green in the light, this is normal.\n\u003cbr\u003e2. Best planted after the last frost in Spring (March-April), or up until mid-August if stored correctly. Plant slightly earlier in the South of the UK, and later in North of the UK.\n\u003cbr\u003e3. Grow these Second Earlies for 12-16 weeks. Feel for the potatoes size before pulling up to harvest.\n\u003cbr\u003e4. Protect from frost and blight while growing. Use movable Jamieson Brothers Grow Bags or frost covers, and protect from blight with Jamieson Brothers Blight Guard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAfter harvest let the potatoes air dry for a few hours on the soil surface before bagging them up.\n\u003cbr\u003eNever store them in plastic bags, as the trapped moisture will cause them to rot. Hessian sacks are the best way to store potatoes.\n\u003cbr\u003eDon't store them next to onions or fruit like apples, as these release gases that make potatoes spoil faster.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jamieson Brothers","offers":[{"title":"10 Tubers","offer_id":58660569940313,"sku":"POT10-3","price":6.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"2kg (20-25 Tubers)","offer_id":58660569973081,"sku":"POT-FOREMOST-2KG","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"20kg (200-250 Tubers)","offer_id":58660570005849,"sku":"POT-FOREMOST-20KG","price":39.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0886\/8757\/5385\/files\/foremost-2_2.jpg?v=1785939603","url":"https:\/\/jamiesonbrothers.com\/products\/foremost-seed-potatoes","provider":"Jamieson-brothers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
