Hi everyone, not sure if anyone will be able to answer this, or if it'll have to be 'trial and error'...
I am growing a new-ish variety of potato called Harlequin from Thompson&Morgan. It's classed as an Early-Maincrop, and it's a cross between Pink Fir Apple and Charlotte. This is what the T&M description says;
It doesn't mention storing, or not... I've got 3 pretty big tubs of them, so I'm hoping that they will store for a little while at least
Also, not sure if I can start eating them yet - they have flowered but the foliage hasn't started going over yet, and they aren't due to be 'ready' for a few weeks... I had a poke around this morning, and there's definately some decent sized tubers in there already.
Any ideas anyone?

Description:
Charlotte × Pink Fir Apple cross so has to be delectable eating quality. You will not be disappointed. Long finger-shaped, part reddish skin with pale yellow flesh. Unanimously won our 'blind' taste tests, both hold and cold, at our 2004 Press Day. Good common scab resistance.
