Characteristics of potato varieties

Faced for the first time with a huge variety of potato varieties, it is very difficult to understand which of them are intended for human consumption and which ones are optimal as food for farm animals. To make it easier for you, we provide a simplified diagram of the characteristics of varieties.

Common varieties of cultivars

  • Canteens... The most common varieties that have the best taste. Because of this feature, they are commonly used for cooking.
  • Technical... These varieties contain an underestimated amount of protein, so they are intended for the manufacture of alcohol and starch.
  • Fodder... By virtue of their name, these varieties are used to feed livestock. They are distinguished by the fact that the level of protein and starch is much higher than normal.
  • Universal... These varieties have everything you need to target any of the above tasks.

In addition, potato varieties can vary according to the following criteria: early maturity. Unlike other vegetables, there will be more criteria that cover the duration of fruit ripening.

Varieties of varieties by ripening period

  • Early. Fruits appear after 50-65 days.
  • Medium early. Fruits appear after 65-85 days.
  • Mid-season. Fruits appear after 85-95 days.
  • Medium late. Fruits appear after 95-110 days.
  • Late. Fruits appear after 95 days or more.

Seed potato varieties - choosing the right one

It is worth saying that potatoes have weaker protection against all kinds of pests and infections than other vegetables. If this is not taken into account, the tubers will work solely to survive, and not focus on a good harvest.

The only exceptions can be those varieties that successfully resist many of their varieties. But not all resistant varieties are distinguished by the best taste and large-fruited. That is why the choice of varieties must be taken with full responsibility.

It should also be borne in mind that after 3-4 years the variety will degenerate, which means that it is necessary to find an appropriate replacement for it. Elite planting material can be an ideal option. It will be extremely difficult to grow it on your own, because this is a very long and capacious process that requires specific conditions.

When buying it, it will not be superfluous to ask the seller about the quality certificate. This is important due to the fact that very often sellers can offer ordinary potatoes instead of the desired elite planting material.

If you do not want the acquired planting material to become unusable too quickly, then it should be dug out before the lion's share of the crop begins to appear.

As for the characteristics of the varieties, here it is also worth being vigilant not only about the traditional factors (taste, yield and large-fruited), but also several others (early maturity and the place where it comes from). Compliance with the latter factor will help determine the compatibility of the climatic zone, which is extremely important when growing potatoes.

The best potato varieties for the Moscow region

Many summer residents who grow potatoes in the Moscow region managed to note that this activity is extremely risky. Due to non-standard climatic conditions and many other factors, when choosing varieties for planting, several important features should be noted for yourself.

First, the varieties must have good protection against pests and diseases. Secondly, you should choose only early, mid-early and mid-season varieties. If you go into experiments and take later varieties for planting, then they simply will not have time to ripen.

Additionally, you need to pay attention to whether they are intended for landing in the Moscow region. If the selected variety does not have this indicator, but it easily adapts to existing conditions, then this item can be skipped.
