New variety. Substitute for Red Gold. Red Gold is unavailable for 2024.
Growing Guide: Medium-yields. Plant close together for a lot of small, tasty ovals, or farther apart for a heavier yield.
Disease Resistance Characteristics: Red Gold is resistant to potato leafroll virus and potato virus Y, moderately resistant to scab, and lightly resistant to blight.
This favorite of Northern European farmers is ideal for baking and boiling. Also great steamed, scalloped, and as a main ingredient in creamy soups. Red Gold is a mildly dry potato with a creamy texture and the best flavor of all early varieties!
"Naturally Grown" Seed Potatoes are Certified Seed Potatoes grown without use of chemicals, pesticides, fungicides, or synthetic-based fertilizers. Like our Certified Organic Seed potatoes, they are grown using natural and organic methods such as beneficial insects, crop rotation, cover crops, animal grazing, and increased plant diversity on the farm. The only factor prohibiting Organic Certification is the application of a foliar acid to desiccate the vines before harvest. The use of the desiccant (synthetic) dramatically helps reduce spread of aphid-carried disease in a crop, which can easily ruin an entire crop of seed potatoes as disease tolerance levels for Certification are extremely low.

We are proud to offer this high-quality seed to you knowing it was grown with care in the spirit of organic.

Please note: Certified Organic Growers should secure approval from their Certifier before planting to ensure compliance. When Certified OG seed stock for specifically desired varieties is not available from other sources, planting untreated or conventional is often approved as an acceptable substitute.
