Its hard to tell exactly, depends on a lot of things, types, spacing,watering, etc it could be anything between six to fifteen but others will come on and give you different figures its just pot luck. ??? ??? ??? :P

Hi terracemax,
If you keep notes on what you planted each year, growing conditions etc. and continue to do so, you'll get your own individual estimate after about three years ;)
This might be a good starter for ten:

Yes I agree there are so many factors including how you earth up, or maybe you use plastic? The key thing is finding that seed potatoe that likes your soil conditions, have a chat with others on your site and see what really does well and is almost pest/problem free.

Hi - I read that you need to get the spacing right to promote good growth.
