State certification is a system of official inspection which 
guarantees the grading of potato seed stock. This insures 
planting seed potatoes having a high degree of freedom from 
disease, and that are true to name, free from varietal mix¬ 
ture, and are produced by vigorous, healthy plants possess¬ 
ing high yielding qualities. It further means that the seed 
potatoes must be graded for size and freedom from me¬ 
chanical injuries. State Certified seed costs a little more, 
but growers have found from experience that it pays well to 
use only State Certified in preference to ordinary seed po¬ 
tatoes 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 crop 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 15 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 to 
use small potatoes and plant whole in order to secure a satis¬ 
factory stand. Fertilizer should be put in seven to eight days 
before planting. Use from 1,000 to 2.000 lbs. per acre, de¬ 
pending on type of soil. A 4-7-5 fertilizer mixture is a good 
standard for potatoes.
