I entered a new holiday season. Many dream of getting their first harvest as early as possible. Everyone knows how to grow any crop on his land. But not everyone knows that it is possible to the end of June, already has its new potatoes. Let's see what it needs to do.
Potato - the second bread. Plant of the family Solanaceae proliferates and tubers. The best precursors are lettuce, cucumber, spinach and kale. To plant potatoes is better in open, shaded areas, which quickly melted the snow. Tubers selected early maturing varieties (Zhukovski early, Luck, novelty Priekule early and others).
We grow early potatoes
We buy planting material. Choose healthy potato tubers. By the size of a potato should be like a hen's egg. Healthy tubers treated in light pink solution of potassium permanganate and copper sulfate of about 1 hour. The treated tubers were allowed to germinate under light for 27 days, periodically vzbryzgivaya them using an atomizer. Then take light large capacity higher than 12 cm (also can be grown on a potato in packages of milk) is filled with soil organic additives 10-14 cm and tubers laid sprouts up.
Sprinkled on top and 5 cm throw solution "Kornevina". Containers with tubers are placed in a sunny place. Seedlings are grown for 3 weeks. Then in the beginning of May in autumn with prepared soil germinated tubers are planted with the addition of wood ash into the hole at a distance of 24 cm and 50 cm between rows.
Not it is not necessary to add potassium chloride - the substance has a negative impact on the development of the crop itself, but also the quality of potatoes. In order to avoid lowering the temperature, tubers covered lutrasilom or film. Once the threat of frost has passed, lutrasil or film is removed.
Appeared in the middle of May shoots immediately spud. The cultivation of potatoes also are mandatory weeding and watering. Watered at least 2 times, depending on weather conditions. In late June, it is already possible to remove the crop.
When growing potatoes through a potato seedlings can be damaged by pests and diseases - this should be prepared in advance.
