Kartosa story about potatoes - surveillance for five-plus

I wanted to do gardening. I got on his bike and went to look for garden plots. I saw near the gardens of the airfield. I walked up to the first that fell gardener.

I asked how can I purchase a plot. And the man was prefect of the plots. He showed me, and cast section. I steppe man was difficult to understand how to deal with weeds, which grew by leaps and bounds.

Now I began to dig his plot. Select each root. For a week I cleaned out a few square meters. Dig their logging site, I bear roots buckets.

And here is the potato

And then came the neighbor and says. I was left with a bucket of potatoes. Take and plant yourself. I refused for a long time. But then I agreed. I decided to put on a clean ground. Polvedra planted, and still have half a bucket. No more room. What to do?

I decided to throw away the rest of the potatoes symbolically. I.e... I walked over to the pile with roots and formed from a bed of debris. Potatoes laid out side by side and slightly covered with earth. The next day, I decided to accelerate productivity. Remembering how the army we produced sod for lawns. Dern aside, and pure land dug. And it is not necessary to shake the earth, and to choose the roots.

So I got another bed. And I have it planted on dill. A sod threw potatoes, which lay on the rubbish heap. The fact that the potato I did not have to plant. In our region it did not grow (the steppe).

Autumn came

I dig potatoes in the garden - peas, complete disappointment. Near bed with dill. Surprisingly, even with very faded circle. I joked, perhaps the aliens landed here.

Well? Let's see what on a pile of rubbish, bushes after sticking and dark green. I pulled a bush! They spilled out of pieces of turf ogromennye tubers the size of a man's shoe. Yes, so much! I had to carry a bike home several times.

And then I realized that for potato land is needed not rubbed through the fingers and huge lumps. The next year, so I did. I dug the ground and directly beneath clumps of virgin land stuffed tubers.

In the autumn the tubers have pleased me. The size of a half-liter jar.

That same year, I tried this method, the cultivation of a potato: simply laid on the lawn and fell asleep hay. Grade Adretta was.

It's time to harvest. All tubers get the same, like billiard balls. Washed or dig. I collected and carried home. Now the Internet are vying boast such a planting method.

Here's a story.
