Kennebec

Kennebec

CERTIFIED ORGANIC! Grown in Canada since 1951, Kennebec HEIRLOOM potatoes were first bred in Maine ten years earlier. Kennebec potatoes produce high yields of oblate tubers with creamy buff skin over white flesh. These make wonderful French fries! Plants are spreading at maturity, and require close planting at 15-20cm (6-8") between plants. Kennebec is a medium/late maturing variety with excellent storage quality - but note: Kennebec is notorious for colouring up green skins if not stored in the dark.

Field resistant to PVA and PVY. Resistant to tuber net necrosis. Moderately resistant to foliage late blight, black leg, fusarium dry rot (F. coeruleum), phoma rot, potato wart, seed-piece decay, PVS, and PVX. Susceptible to common scab, fusarium dry rot (F. sambucinum), tuber late blight, leaf roll, pink eye, and rhizoctonia. Highly susceptible to verticillium wilt.

PLEASE NOTE: Potatoes are shipped separately in March unless you ask for your seeds to ship together.
