Our potatoes can get a skin disease called scab. This produces unsightly scabby spots or patches on the skin of the tuber, but the potatoes can still be eaten. Good to hear from you in Canada.

Our potatoes can get a skin disease called scab. This produces unsightly scabby spots or patches on the skin of the tuber, but the potatoes can still be eaten. This is why it is important to plant good, clean seed that does not have scab, because it will be passed on. Also, planting potatoes on fresh ground(rotating) will mean that the soil is not so likely to be full of scab organisms. Thanks for visiting TopVeg Hi jhonny
