Listed below are the different types of Certified seed available at Price Farms
Characteristics
Characteristics 
This cultivar, shows good resistant to all viruses. It has a dark skin and an extremely good shape and profile to it. It is common to have over 90% of the tubers US#1 and within 6 to 12 oz tuber weight. Canela russet has an extrememly long dormancy period for long term storage without sprout inhibitors, but this also means one must wake up the seed sufficiently before planting. It is a medium maturing, oblong russet with the primary use being the fresh market. Yields to date are in the 350 - 400 sacks per acre area.
Characteristics 
Centennial Russet is a medium- to late-maturing, fresh market potato released in 1976 by Colorado State University (APJ 54:603-605, 1977). This cultivar has few production problems and is well suited to the SLV. Vine is medium to large, upright, with lavender flowers; determinate growth habit; moderate root system. Tubers are white fleshed, oblong to slightly flat with shallow eyes and a dark, heavy russeted skin; medium to high specific gravity (1.085).

Characteristics 
The Rio Grande Russet is a very high yielding, medium maturing selection that has a oblong to long tuber type with a medium russet and white flesh. Plants are medium to large sized and spreading with ruffled leaves. They have a high percentage of #1's and large tubers that are very smooth and have an attractive appearance. They are resistant to blackspot bruising and PVY, PLRV and other diseases. They are useful on the fresh market with a medium specific gravity (1.082). They have a low input need for Nitrogen fertilizer.
Characteristics
Russet Norkotah is a early-maturing potato released in 1987 by North Dakota State University(APJ 65:597-604, 1988). It is primarily a fresh market potato with good boiling and baking qualities. It is widely adapted to the western U.S. and performs especially well in the SLV. Selections were made at Texas A & M in the early 1990's. Five selections survived grower trials. The Texas selections were first selected in a field with very high early dying / verticilium pressure. Then they were further selected for heat resistence, vigor and tuber type. Texas line selections will have greater vine growth, yield and early dying tolerance with excellent tuber appearance and percentage of U.S. #1's. Advantages of Line 278: High Yields. Good vine size. Later Maturity

It is widely adapted to the western U.S. and performs especially well in the SLV. Selections were made in the San Luis Valley Colorado State University Research center in 1991. Two selections survived grower trials. Plants are fast emerging with a medium, slightly upright vine and white flowers; it has a determinate growth habit. The Selection 3 has a much bigger vine than the standard. The selections root system is more developed and extensive than the standard Norkotah. They are susceptible to hail damage, but better than the standards
Characteristics
Russet Nugget is a late-maturing fresh market/processing potato released in 1988 by ColoradoState University (APJ 69:331-336, 1992). It ranks high in all taste tests. Levels of Vitamin C also are high (35.0 mg/l 00g, fresh weight basis). Plants emerge quickly and produce a vine that is large and erect with abundant white flowers and an indeterminate growth habit. A deep spreading root system helps provide adequate water and nutrient uptake for the large vines. Hail damage generally is minimal. Tubers have creamy white flesh and are oblong with a light russet skin. Eyes are shallow and well distributed; tubers consistently have high specific gravity (1.100). Yield potential 400 to 450 cwt. range with a high percentage of No. l's.

Characteristics
Certified Seed means that our potatoes were inspected while growing in the field and again after being harvested and were thereafter duly certified by PCS as provided in the Rules and Regulations approved by the Board of Governors of the CSU System.
