None was apparent. The weight of the potatoes was eight pounds, which is considered excellent, near the top of the chart. Some people ar claiming from 10 to 15 pounds per plant, I believe this is only an estimate. I consider five to ten pound per plant to be typical. http://www.durgan.org/URL/?FAKES Summary: Potatoes 2009.
