State certification is a system of official inspection which 
guarantees the grading of potato seed stock. This insures plant¬ 
ing seed potatoes having a high degree of freedom from disease, 
and that are true to name, free from varietal mixture, and are 
produced by vigorous, healthy plants possessing high yielding 
qualities. It further means that the seed potatoes must be 
graded for size and freedom from mechanical injuries. State 
Certified seed costs a little more, but growers have found from 
experience that it pays well to use only State Certified in pre¬ 
ference to ordinary seed potatoes of doubtful source, history 
and quality. We do not accept orders for export of seed potatoes. 
Culture. The fall and early spring crop should be planted 
from September 1 to March 1; the bulk of the fall cron in 
south and central Florida between September 1st and October 
15th. Plant in rows three to four feet apart, dropping a seed 
piece every twelve to fifteen inches in the row. If weather is 
warm, plant at least six inches deep. In cutting the seed leave 
two or three good eyes to each seed piece. Using a large seed 
piece will insure a stronger plant. For early fall planting in 
Florida during August and September, it is desirable tq use 
small potatoes and plant whole in order to secure a satisfactory 
stand. Fertilizer should be put in seven to eight days before 
planting. Use from 1,000 to 2,000 lbs. per acre, depending on 
type of soil. A 4-7-5 fertilizer mixture is a good standard for 
potatoes.
