Valor is one of the latest maincrop potatoes to mature but well worth the wait. Valor gives an excellent yield of large creamy tubers that store well.

Tubers have a dry firm texture and are good for baking and boiling. A vigorous grower with excellent all round disease resistance. A Maincrop variety. Flesh Colour - Cream. Uses - boil, steam, mash, chips, saute, baked and roast.

Immediately upon arrival unpack your seed potatoes and keep them in trays in a light, airy, frost free place to sprout prior to planting. Planting - depth 10cm (4"); spacing in row - 30-40cm (12-16"); width between rows - 70-75cm (28-30").

Soil should be well-worked and rich in humus (farm-yard manure or garden compost). Earth up two to three times as the top grows, to avoid green tubers. Feed with a balanced fertiliser and always keep your potatoes watered well during dry periods to ensure a good crop.

NB: Quantities are approximate and based on 10 tubers per kilogram.
