garden plants it occupies a special place.

Growing this culture turned into
a kind of rest in the country, and the resulting harvest – pride
the host. In this case, a lot depends on the method of growing the root,
in 98% of cases it is grown from seed tubers.

Peculiarities of potato growing season

According to its characteristics, potato tubers are modified
shoots, how many will be and how fast they are formed
depends on a few points:

1. • The main thing you need to get a decent harvest –
питательный, легкий и рыхлый грунт на plot. Nutrition and
soil structure is improved by introducing rotten manure, riding
torus; good compost;

2. • Best for planting potatoes with tubers.
temperature 5-8 degrees, for their germination the optimum temperature
15-18 degrees;

3. • Usually planted root crops to a depth of 10-15 cm, according to the scheme –
aisle 60-70 cm, distance in rows 25-35 cm;

4. • When the time required for the formation of tubers, the plant must
more moisture and lower temperature (about 20 degrees). If in
hot summer in your region, you need to plant potatoes earlier and
drought time to water it;

5. • The tubers of this crop can degenerate, especially
relevant in extreme heat. For this reason, once every 3-4 years
need to update seed material – buy an elite variety in
seed farming, buy another potato variety from
breeders, or update it yourself – by sowing seeds or
cuttings.

Seed potato preparation

Selection of suitable tubers for planting and their preparation begin
after harvest. Tubers weighing 20-25 grams (with average chicken egg)
from healthy and productive bushes and plant trees within 12-15 days
(laid out in a shaded place, so that their top layer
turned green). This preparation will strengthen the protective mechanisms of seed
material, will give it resistance to lowering the temperature. To
get early potatoes better for planting potatoes tubers
use seed material weighing 60-90 g

Sprouting potatoes

One and a half months before planting, the tubers are vernalized and germinated.
Seed material is placed in a low box and placed in
warm (about 20 degrees) and bright room. Sprouts on tubers
You can wake up like this:

1. • Tubers are cut across, to a depth of 5-8 mm, it helps
redirect nutrients to all eyes;

2. • For this, crescent cuts are made around the kidneys;

3. • Tubers are sprayed several times with water dissolved in it.
stimulants and microelements;

4. • Potatoes are germinated in wet moss or sawdust.

Springing of tubers is carried out just before planting in the ground –
the boxes are covered with a thick, opaque film and transferred to the cellar
or a room with a temperature of 3-5 degrees there they can withstand
a week Potatoes after vernalization quickly form friendly
seedlings.

Pretreatment processing of potato tubers

Tubers before planting are carried out to enhance growth and increase
plant ability to resist diseases and pests.
For this use:

• Spraying of tubers with growth stimulants;

• Treatment with various insecticides: there are scare compounds
flea beetle, aphids, wireworm and colorado potato beetle, improves the condition
seedlings and accelerates their development;

• Before planting, the tubers are kept in the stimulator solution.
Shine-2, the composition (100 g) is dissolved in 5 l of water, and 1/2 is added
cup of sugar.

Attention! Growth stimulant and
natural antiseptic – onion peel, it is thrown into the hole when
planting potatoes, which delays the development of pathogenic bacteria,
it repels the bear and the Colorado potato beetle with its smell.

Soil preparation for potatoes

The plot for potatoes is fertilized and dug up in the fall, at this time.
make 3-4 kg / m2 of good compost or humus and mineral
fertilizers containing phosphorus (at a concentration of 0.5 kg / m²).

Adherents of natural farming advise as
baking powder soil use plant residues, their fall
fall asleep in the grooves prepared for planting potatoes, and in such
the form is left until spring. During the winter under the snow, they partially rot,
in the spring they pour a tablespoon of wood ash on each tuber and
a handful of good humus.

Planting potato tubers

You can plant tubers according to old-fashioned technology – under a shovel. But
such work requires more labor, and during landing you
you seal the earth.

The owners of large areas prefer to plant potatoes with
motoblock. Before planting, they milled soil at 10 cm, then with
using a plow hung on the walker cut furrows.

Tubers prepared in advance are laid in them, furrows are filled up
and harrow the plot. It is possible to install a special motorblock
potato planter, but it is used only for not germinated
potato, otherwise the sprouts during planting break off. Often for
planting potatoes are made homemade devices.

The original technology of planting potatoes with tubers

The intensity of the formation of potatoes depends on the method of planting
tubers. Experienced gardeners with meager labor costs grow
large yields – up to 6-7 kg / m2.

Planting method under straw

So our great-grandfathers planted potatoes, then the method was abandoned
and now it has been mastered by followers of natural farming.

Prepared tubers are placed on moist soil and sprinkled on them.
by land. After that lay a layer (10 cm) of rotted straw.
It is necessary to moisturize it regularly throughout the season to
speed up the decay of organics.

Excellent result due to the fact that the straw, slowly
rotting, constantly feeding the plants and at the same time
It protects the tubers from low temperature and overheating in the summer heat.
When the seedlings of the potato rise the layer of mulch can be increased.

Organic furrow

Preparation begin in the autumn. Dig a ditch wide
0.5-0.7 m and up to 0.5 m depth. The length is taken as necessary
have furrows from north to south. All fall she fall asleep
organic residues – raw materials for compost heaps, leaves,
straw, grass from the garden without seeds.

In the warm season, activation of the decomposition of organic matter furrows watered.
water mixed with EM-compounds.

In the springtime, the rotted mass is mixed with humus and
add wood ash. After the ground warms up in the furrows
put prepared tubers to a depth of 10 cm and fall asleep
soil.

During the season, plants spud three times.

In rainy regions and low-lying areas so grow
potatoes can not be tubers – it can soak.

Growing in crests

Another method is called – planting potatoes in tubers
Dutch technology. Plot for potatoes in autumn
dig up.

After melting snow, after the soil dries slightly
harrow and fertilize complex compounds. 0.9-1 m do
furrows 4-6 cm deep.

They put prepared potatoes, and on top of it
poured comb.

After 12-15 days (before the emergence of seedlings), the comb is raised to
25 cm, the last time spud potatoes on the ridges during
flowering
