A number of varieties have exceptional cooking quality, and are especially suited for growth in backyard plots in the Morrow County area. According to County Exten sion Agent Harold Kerr, early red varieties are Norland and Red LaSoda. Recommended late red variety is Red Pontiac, with White Rose and Norgold Russets producing good early white potatoes. Kerr recommends the Kenne bec, Nampa, Nooksack, and Russet Burbank as good late white varieties. Seed stock for these varie ties is available from local feed and seed stores. Kerr suggests using certified seed stock to avoid viral diseases often associated with uncerti fied seed spuds. "Potatoes from the grocery store are often treated in a way to prevent sprouting, so they should be avoided for seed," he added. ..affliwmmima... V. ' TP. ... , ' Seed potatoes should be cut in quarters or halves. Each seed piece should weigh roughly two ounces, and must contain at least one eye or it will not sprout. Seed pieces should be placed three inches deep as soon as possible after they have been cut and treated with Captan or a similar material in order to prevent rotting and disease. Planting may be performed as soon as the ground warms until the end of June. Potatoes intended for winter storage should be planted later than those for summer use, Kerr noted. A 16-20-0 fertilizer is recom mended for east-of-the-Cas- cades per thousand square feet. In smaller plots, one fourth ounce of fertilizer should be placed about three inches to either side of the seed slices, and one inch below the seed pieces while planting. As the plants grow, pile soil around their bases and about six inches to either side. Sunlight causes new tubers to turn green, and this practice helps keep them away from the the sun. Do not completely cover the plant foliage. If the potatoes are to be irrigated, begin watering when the plants are about five inches high. Once irrigation is started, the ground should be kept damp, since if the soil dries, an increased percent age of small, knobby tubers will result. Wireworms and flea beetle larvae feed on the potatoes as they grow. To prevent dam age, Kerr suggests treating the soil with diazinon at planting time. A spray or dust of sevin is also suggested to control flea beetles. Label instructions should be fol lowed when using insecticides. The Colorado potato beetle is an occasional pest in the Morrow County area. The adults are yellow with black stripes, and the larvae are reddish-orange. Both adults and larvae feed on the leaves. Handpicking the adult beetle and egg masses from the plants and destroying them can be effective in small gardens, Kerr said. However, if beetle infesta tion gets out of hand, Kerr suggests using sevin as a last resort. The chemical is highly toxic to bees, and should be handled and applied with extreme care.
