What month do you plant potatoes?

General Rule: Potatoes are best planted after the last frost when the soil temperature is consistently above 50°F (10°C).

Timing:

* Warm Climates: You can plant potatoes as early as February or March.

* Moderate Climates: Aim for planting in March or April.

* Cool Climates: May is a good time to plant potatoes.

Other Factors:

* Variety: Different potato varieties have different maturity times. Check the seed packet or online resources for specific planting recommendations.

* Soil Temperature: Use a soil thermometer to make sure the soil is warm enough for planting.

* Frost Risk: Be aware of the possibility of late frosts, especially in cooler climates.

Tip: You can get a jump start on the growing season by starting your potatoes indoors in seed trays or containers about 4-6 weeks before your last frost date.
