Jelly is a medium-late variety of an all-purpose edible potato. Its tubers are typicall oval in shape. They are covered with a smooth, light skin with shallow eyes. Their yellow flesh, which does not tend to darken, has an excellent taste. Very good storability and a long dormancy period without germination also belong to advantages of the offered variety. Jelly produces high yield of shapely tubers, which makes it very popular among farmers. It is a cooking type BC, an all-purpose tomato that is perfectly suitable for preparation of chips (French fries), crisps, and roasting in slices. Their higher starch content makes them a delicious raw material for pancakes, hash browns, and dumplings. You can of course simply boil them in water and serve traditionally with meat and gravy.

Cultivation of Jelly potatoes requires a well-lit place, and a deeply verticulated, thoroughly weeded soil. Due to the large size of the tubers, make sure to remove larger stones from the growing site. The variety has medium soil and moisture requirements. Feed the plants during most intensive growth periods, preferably with natural fertilizers, such as compost, manure, and vermicompost. Plant Jelly seed potatoes in rows spaced 75 centimetres apart. Keep individual plants in a row 25 to 30 centimetres apart. Prevent weeds from spreading on the beds. Moderate, regular watering is required in periods of drought to ensure even and healthy development of tubers. Hilling or ridging belongs to traditional methods that has many beneficial aspects for the cultivation of potatoes.
