Tom Wagner has one of the few private, one-man potato breeding programs in the....... Want to read more? Pardon me for even mentioning it. Go to the sno-valley-tilth website below or click on the second site which is a pdf file. http://www.snovalleytilth.net/resources.htm http://www.snovalleytilth.net/home_f...0Taters%20.pdf You can also downloaded this file directly from the link at the bottom of this post. Since I am a landless potato grower and breeder, I have to beg for ground to plant potatoes on. I don't have the capital to buy, rent, or steal ground. Most of the lines I put up for this site are research oriented. The cost of the tubers covers, for the most part, the delivery system for the local area. The tubers are not destined to be reproduced without my consent and I intend (within reason) to visit the potato plots where ever they are planted. I need to evaluate the performance and flavor of said varieties and perhaps collect the potato berries produced. This is an attempt for local growers to facilitate local seed sources. The Pdf list is a veiled attempt by Kate H. to get me to go national on folks with my assorted varieties in the years yet to come. If I do go for a large scale it would be with 100% internal creations. So if you wanted a Pjellfinn, you would have to settle for an F-1 of Pjellfinn and Golden Amey. Have fun looking at this site. Let me know what you think. Tom |
