  • Soil requirements: Purple potatoes prefer well-drained, loose, and fertile soil with a pH level between 5.0 and 6.0. The soil should be rich in organic matter to support healthy growth.
  • Sunlight needs: Purple potatoes require full sun, which means they need at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day.
  • Watering requirements: Purple potatoes need consistent moisture, especially during the tuber formation stage. Water them deeply once a week, ensuring the soil remains moist but not waterlogged.
  • Planting season: The best time to plant purple potatoes is in early spring, after the last frost date. In warmer climates, they can also be planted in late summer for a fall harvest.
  • Depth and spacing: Plant purple potato seeds (or seed potatoes) about 4 inches deep and 12 inches apart in rows that are spaced 30 inches apart. Ensure the eyes of the seed potatoes are facing up.
  • Germination time: Purple potato seeds typically take 2-3 weeks to sprout after planting, depending on soil temperature and conditions.
  • Maturity time: Purple potatoes generally take about 90-120 days to reach maturity after planting.
  • Harvesting time: The best time to harvest purple potatoes is when the foliage starts to yellow and die back. This usually occurs in late summer or early fall.
  • Harvesting tips: Use a garden fork or spade to gently lift the potatoes from the soil. Be careful not to damage the tubers. After harvesting, cure the potatoes in a cool, dark, and well-ventilated area for about 1-2 weeks before storing them. Store them in a cool, dark place with good air circulation to prolong their shelf life.
