Potato 'Clancy'

Clancy produces red and rose-gold, creamer-sized potatoes that are ready around 110 days after transplanting. 

Potatoes to not like to be exposed to light, and grow better when the roots are in complete darkness. As your potatoes grow underground, they will produce leafy stalks above ground. Once they become around 1' tall, you can hill up soil, straw, or grass mulch around the stems. You can repeat this process 2-3 times over the growing season. Potatoes are ready when the foliage begins to yellow and wilt. On a dry day, gently begin to dig up the potatoes without cutting or bruising them. Leave the potatoes on the surface of the soil for a few hours so they can dry, preferably in a shady spot. If you plan to store your potatoes, you can leave them in the ground for a month after cutting the foliage back, or leave them in a dark, cool area for 2-5 days.

Potatoes grow best in full sun with loose, fertile, well-drained soil. Allow soil to somewhat dry in between waterings, as potatoes will rot in soggy soil. Stop watering your potatoes a week or two before you plan on harvesting them.
