Pohlmans Sebago Potato is a great general purpose potato, good for all uses in the kitchen. Sebago is generally of good size with a cream coloured skin with white flesh and is perfect for crispy chips and mashed potato.
Potatoes are high in carbohydrates, low in calories, but high in folate, niacin, vitamin B6, iodine, thiamine, anthocyanin and fibre. Keep skin on during cooking to obtain maximum nutritional benefit. Plant the potatoes 13 cm deep and then cover with a mulch 25-30 cm deep. Space plants 30-35cm apart.
Harvest potatoes by lifting plant when it begins to wilt, generally 16-18 weeks from planting, as this is a sign the plant has matured, dig up potatoes and check the colour and firmness to see if your first harvest is ready to consume.
