{"product_id":"spud-man-maris-bard-seed-potatoes","title":"SpudMan Maris Bard Seed Potatoes","description":"\u003cp\u003eMaris Peer is a popular second early variety known for its smooth skin, waxy texture, and light, fresh flavour. These potatoes hold their shape well after cooking, making them perfect for salads, summer dishes, and cold sides. Carefully stored for summer planting, Maris Peer offers the opportunity to grow fresh potatoes ready for harvest later in the year. Favoured by SpudMan for their versatility and consistent quality, they’re well-suited to gardens, containers, and allotments.\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 First Earlies for 8-12 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":"SpudMan","offers":[{"title":"3 Tubers","offer_id":58660577083737,"sku":"JBA-SM-MARIS-BARD-3","price":5.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"9 Tubers","offer_id":58660577116505,"sku":"JBA-SM-MARIS-BARD-9","price":6.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0886\/8757\/5385\/files\/seed-potato-first-early-maris-bard-lifestyle-4_1aae7986-5053-4066-a45a-ead0a8ad114f.jpg?v=1784881629","url":"https:\/\/jamiesonbrothers.com\/products\/spud-man-maris-bard-seed-potatoes","provider":"Jamieson-brothers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
