    Hi i bought some seed potatoes at the week end, Sharpes express, Queens,Kerr Pinks. Can i sow all these at the same time or should i leave a gap of 2-3wks between sowing. I plan to sow 8mtrs of sharpes,8mtrs of queens & 14mtrs k.pinks. would that produce much return? Is it best to sow them 4" deep and then earth up? Do you only earth up once or keep doing so until the potatoes are ready?

    This seems like a good Irish site for advice, including videos. Check out Youtube as well for more videos.
