Should be ok, assuming you have sprouting seed pots which look healthy.

If you have no seed, I note there is a seed catalogue which advertises an 8
week harvest "new potatoes on Xmas day".

But did you look at the price? I had thought about doing new potatoes
for Christmas - until I saw how much the specially treated (held in
chill, I believe) seed potatoes cost. Over £6 IIRC, for more seed
potatoes than I really wanted, too.
