Fall-Planted Organic Burbank Russet Seed Potatoes (lb)
Fall-Planted Organic Burbank Russet Seed Potatoes (lb)
The most popular grown potato in America.
Fall-Planted Certified Organic & Non-GMO Seed Potatoes
Russet skin, shallow eyes, and white flesh are characteristic of this long-oval russet. Most widely grown potato in the U.S., originating from Luther Burbank's early plant breeding. This is the potato that made Idaho famous.
- 100+ days, late season
- Long-storing and scab-resistant
- Great baked fried or boiled
- Certified seed potatoes & certified organic
- Needs a consistent moisture supply
Planting Instructions:
- Fall-planted spuds produce outstanding yields by May. If your area experiences hard winters (USDA Zones 1–7), or you tend to have long, wet spring seasons when rot might be a problem, plant potatoes in the spring.
- One pound of seed potatoes will plant a row approximately 8' long with seed pieces spaced at 8 - 12" apart.
- Plan on 1,200 lb/acre (600 lb of fingerlings) when rows are spaced 36" apart with 12" between plants.
- Under optimal conditions, you can expect to harvest 10–15 pounds of potatoes for every pound of seed potato planted.

We guarantee the perishable items we sell to be in good, viable condition when we sell them. Perishable items include, but are not limited to, garlic bulbs, flower bulbs, seed potatoes, onion sets & transplants, bare-root trees, vegetable crowns, etc. If your perishable item arrives in substandard condition, take photographs and please contact us within 3 days of the purchase date (or delivery date) and we will provide you with a refund of the purchase price (excluding shipping costs), or a replacement. Accordingly, we urge you to open any boxes marked as ""Perishable"" immediately upon receiving them and inspect the shipment thoroughly (do not crack open heads of garlic, we do not accept claims on cracked garlic). Because some perishable items can deteriorate very quickly, we cannot accept any claims beyond the 3-day time frame as it becomes too difficult to determine if these items were delivered in substandard condition, or if they turned into such substandard condition because of having been improperly cared for or stored once delivered.

Fast shipment and quality product!
I ordered them and when they arrived , I read the paper that came with them about how to prepare the seed potatoes and how to put them in the ground. There were more details, so I still refer back to it. Now, my plants are big and lovely. I just hilled them, and am excited to see what’s going on under there in good time!
I ordered these potatoes to plant in the spring. I thought that you'd mail them out when the time is right for planting in Michigan, like all the other companies do. Now, I have seed potatoes and nowhere to plant them until spring! Hope they don't rot! Not happy!
I cant wait to eat these!
Received a lot of really small seed potatoes, No sprouts yet . The other potatoes were great A bit disappointed on the Russett
