Potatoes are one of the most popular vegetables, of which, like many representatives of country crops, eggplants, for example, there are a great many varieties, but which of them are the best is quite difficult to determine. In order for the harvest of this vegetable crop to be the best, and during ripening the tubers are not affected by diseases and pests, it is necessary to choose potato varieties that are specially zoned for a specific climate. This approach to planting will ensure excellent survival rate and harvest of vegetables.
Zoned potato varieties are developed taking into account the characteristics of the climatic zone and soil conditions of each individual territory; in addition, the selection takes into account the duration of the period that is favorable for growing vegetables. Taking these features into account, the territory of Russia is conditionally divided into regions where certain and best varieties of potatoes are zoned.
And since everyone plants their own potatoes, whatever they choose (all kinds of schemes, methods, ridges, ...), then the “yield” of the crop of the varieties below will be given in c/ha (centner per hectare). And the weight from 1 c/ha, if we translate this into “digestible” numbers that are understandable to many, compared to 1 kg/sq. meter, will mean a value exactly 100 times smaller (for example, 400 c/ha = 4 kg/sq. m.).
Potato varieties for the Northern regions
It is not easy to grow potatoes here, and late-ripening varieties are almost impossible. However, even in such harsh conditions, a rich harvest of this crop is possible:
Fresco
An early favorite for this region is the Fresco potato. This variety is immune to many diseases, but it is partially susceptible to late blight (for the elimination of which hands and preparations are given). The ripening period for vegetables, each weighing 110-120 grams, is 75-80 days. Productivity 220-370 c/ha.
Nevsky
Nevsky potatoes are popular among many summer residents who prefer mid-early varieties. It is frost-resistant, has excellent preservation and, if properly cared for, provides the gardener with large harvest tubers (270-340 c/ha) of white color with the same pulp. The growing season is 80-90 days, the average tuber weight is 90-130 grams.
Ladozhsky
One of the best mid-season varieties for the Northern region is Ladoga. It has fairly large tubers (from 100 to 350 g), with white pulp and a golden glossy skin. Ladoga is resistant to attacks by many pests, however, it is partially susceptible to late blight. The ripening period for vegetables with a yield of 200-450 c/ha is 82-87 days.
Nikulinsky
Not every medium-late potato (just over 120 days) manages to form full-fledged tubers in the climate of the Northern region, however, Nikulinsky is a pleasant exception. It is immune to many parasites, except blackleg, as well as common scab. Light beige medium-sized vegetables (75-130 g), with whitish pulp and a large number of small eyes and a mesh skin. 320-440 c/ha will please the gardener.
Pros and cons of the variety
The Madelina variety is well acclimatized and widely distributed throughout Russia. It is resistant to temperature changes and is not very picky about soils.
- early maturation;
- leveled root crops with high commercial characteristics;
- productive, with good yield;
- transports well;
- not subject to damage during various types of cleaning;
- for early culture it has good storage characteristics;
- resistance to certain diseases.
The peculiarities of the variety include the need for planting, in heated soil and pre-planting preparation of tubers. The disadvantages include instability to infection with late blight of tops.
The best potatoes for the Northwest
The climate here is quite cold, and of the 59 potato varieties that take root here, only 5 are late and mid-late.
Borodyansky pink
Early Borodyansky pink is the best choice for those who prefer to enjoy potatoes (200-420 c/ha) already in early August. The growing season is only about 75 days. At the same time, there are many tubers of the same size in the nest, 100-130 g. The flesh of the vegetables is creamy yellow and crumbles when cooked. The variety does not survive storage very well: it is susceptible to disease and rot, so it is not worth planting as the main one.
Gala
Particularly popular among experienced summer residents are mid-ripening Gala potatoes, the most preferred variety for planting (220-250 c/ha) in the North-Western part of Russia. The tubers (80-120 g) are round, with yellowish skin and yellow flesh. Despite the rapid ripening period (no more than 80 days), vegetables have a high shelf life. Its only drawback is its susceptibility to the fungus rhizoctonia, but timely preventive treatment will eliminate the disease.
Bronnitsky
There are many outstanding potatoes in many respects for their suitability for the conditions of this part of Russia, and one of them is the mid-season Bronnitsky variety (320-510 c/ha). The shape of the tuber is an oval. The pulp and skin are yellowish in color. It is highly resistant to late blight. An average tuber weighs approximately 100-110 grams. Loamy soils are more suitable for cultivation.
Madeira potatoes in comparison with analogues
Tomato My Love: characteristics and description of the variety

- Isle of Jura - 2007;
- Vector – 2014;
- Lugovskoy - 1987;
- Nevsky - 1982
The last two are the most popular varieties among amateur gardeners. The Vector and Lugovskoy varieties are not entirely appropriate in this selection, since in terms of ripening they are medium and not mid-early, but in terms of other qualities they are appropriate for comparison. All these varieties are worthy: tasty, shelf-stable, productive, and good for cooking.

Agricultural technology
Potatoes Armada: description of the variety
The variety is unpretentious. Thorough digging of the soil is required. When planting, tubers should be buried no more than 17 cm.
On a note. Madeira potatoes absorb nitrogen well, so they should be fed slightly less nitrogen fertilizers than other varieties.
The variety is recommended for cultivation in the Volga-Vyatka region. Of course, there will be nuances in agricultural technology from region to region; let’s look at the features of growing the Madeira variety using the example of the Sverdlovsk region:
- Planting - no earlier than mid-May. You should wait until the soil warms up to +8-10°C;
- Seed tubers are pre-vernalized - thus, seedlings will appear already 8-10 days after planting. Without vernalization, you will have to wait 18-22 days for germination, which will delay the harvest date;
- In the absence of rain, water weekly, spending up to 5 liters per bush;
- Weeds or grass are placed at the base of the stems, achieving the effect of natural mulch;
- Early first hilling is desirable as a way to protect against return spring frosts.
Use methods for stimulating the yield that are also suitable for other varietal potatoes: transverse and annular cuts on seed tubers, watering during the formation of tubers, if the summer is dry, 3 fertilizing per season, partial breaks of the stems. Madeira has excellent potential; it is possible to double the average yield.

The following applications of nutrient mixtures are carried out during the flowering period. Organic (manure, compost) and complex mineral fertilizers are used as top dressing.
Loosening, weeding, hilling
Hilling and loosening are carried out together with watering or after rain. These procedures improve the passage of nutrients, air and moisture. In addition, hilling keeps the soil moist longer and promotes better growth of the main root.

Shelter for the winter
In areas with cold climates, roses need to be covered for the winter. To do this, you can use dry leaves, straw or sawdust.
Important! Under no circumstances should you cover the bushes with film, as this will limit the supply of oxygen to the plant and lead to its death.
