If you are reading this, you or someone you know may have been told they need to have a hysterectomy and also have their ovaries removed.

The growing time for red potatoes can be from 70 to 120 days, depending on the variety you choose to plant and what size you like your potatoes.
Depending on the variety planted, you are generally looking at anywhere from 2-4 months from planting to harvest. If you wish, you can harvest baby potatoes as soon as 2-3 weeks after flowering has finished, perfect as a delectable side dish for a delicious dinner. These tiny new potatoes are sweet and tender as the sugar has not yet been converted into starch.
