2 binding procedures before digging potatoes
Traditionally, I'm starting to dig potatoes in early September and this year is no exception. Many dig the potatoes a little earlier - in late August, but regardless of the term, I always spend two mandatory procedures.
This helps to grow a large and tasty potatoes, and it is stored better.
The first is the dressing
Many believe that potatoes planted and forgotten, but not me. Therefore, a mandatory week for three or four before I spend digging feeding phosphorus fertilizers.
Due to the feeding of the tubers ripen faster and becomes more tasty potatoes and starchy, and much better kept in the future, such potatoes.
I normally use a fertilizer here, it's pretty cheap, but it copes with its task. I breed in water at the rate of 1 kg per 10 liters. water then give 2-3 hours and spray.
Circumcision tops necessarily
Circumcision tops in potatoes I produce for 10-12 days before its start digging. I already wrote about it in another article, Read.
- Nutrients are beginning to actively enter the roots, resulting in the potato matures finally
- At this time, the potato begins to ache often, so cutting the foliage we eliminate the risk that the root sick and spoiling
- With cropped tops much easier to dig potatoes
It seems these two simple procedures, but they are a great help to grow big, delicious potatoes, which does not deteriorate during storage time.
