Th first Yukon Gold Potato was dug. The plant yielded 3.5 pounds of quality potatoes. The seed was planted about four inches deep and the area was mulched with wood chips. All the new tubers were just below the ground and the area was not hilled. There were no tubers exposed to light. Notice no tubers are growing along the stem of the plant. This is an acceptable harvest, since the tops haven’t completely died off yet.

We planted Yukon Golds for the first time this year. We had been told that no potato except the red ones would do well here. We were quite happy with our harvest of "experimental" Yukons--a very nice harvest without any disease or insect problems. More will go in next year.
Yours look lovely, and probably taste even better than they look!
