It is useful to know how many potatoes will be produced by one seed potato when calculating how many seed potatoes to plant in the vegetable garden.
The number of potatoes produced by each seed potato varies according to:
-
number of chits
- growing conditions etc…
The new potatoes, in the photo below, all came from one root, or one seed potato.
Any number of new potatoes, from 2 – 10, can be produced from one seed potato. But most vegetable gardeners would expect at least 6 and preferably 8 -10 new potatoes from each seed tuber planted in the vegetable garden!
