Both the varieties you used last year are very early/short season varieties. The purple peruvian, and papa choncha should work. What do you mean by "too small"?

So this year I am trying this with two varieties that are longer season, with long stolons that set tubers fairly high. Purple Peruvian fingerling and either Papa Chonca or Rose Finn Apple fingerling. I haven't decided which. The others I was intending to use may still be too small this year (Dheera, Morado Ojuda). We shall see.
