How to raise potatoes harvest

For increase in harvest of potatoes it is necessary to prepare correctly the earth, to choose good planting stock and to observe agrotechnology. It consists in timely waterings, fertilizing by mineral and organic fertilizers, loosening and earthing up. If to follow these simple rules, it is possible to receive from the site in several hundred parts harvest, capable year to feed family of three people.

It is required to you

  • - soil;
  • - fertilizers;
  • - planting stock;
  • - water;
  • - shovel;
  • - watering can.

Instruction

1. Dig over the earth where you gather to grow up potatoes since fall. Remove plant debris of harvest of this year, sprinkle the soil intaviry or other means from harmful insects. Check acid-base balance of the soil. pH not higher than 5.5 is desirable if the acidity is higher – bring lime.

2. Do not grow up potatoes several years in a row on one place. As well as any garden culture, from the soil it takes out the same useful substances, the imbalance, even despite introduction of mineral fertilizers as a result is observed. Besides, growing up vegetables on the same sites, you thereby increase risk of infection with diseases inherent to look. Good predecessors of potatoes are cabbage, beet and siderata.

3. Bring under autumn redigging of the site double superphosphate at the rate of 500 g on hundred part. If did not carry out lime application, also introduction of organic fertilizers, in particular – the rerotting manure is allowed. Experts advise it not to be sorry: the good harvest of potatoes will be yielded only by the earth rich with organic chemistry. Therefore they recommend 250-300 kg for each hundred part. Certainly, it is possible to bring organic chemistry and directly under landing, but, unfortunately, in this case the risk of disease of scab increases.

4. Pave the way before spring landing. Dig over it on shovel pin depth better – with turnover of layer. Do not worry that organic fertilizers partially will appear on surface, with the first watering or rain nutrients will leave deep into. Add ammonium nitrate from calculation for 1 kg on hundred part. It can be not closed up to the earth, and to scatter on surface. As soon as potatoes give shoots – feed up plants ashes, powdering pristvolny circle at the rate of 20 g of ashes on each bush. In 20 days carry out extra root fertilizing macro - and microelements, having mixed 40 g of urea, 10 g of potash fertilizers of 150 g of superphosphate and 1 g of copper vitriol from 10 l of water. This number of fertilizing is enough on 1 hundred part of landings of potatoes. It will protect plants from diseases and also will allow to receive more lezhky root crops of high tastes and equal form.

5. Hill potatoes when escapes reach about 20 cm. But try to do it accurately, without having damaged root system. Before earthing up it makes sense to feed up organic fertilizers, especially if the organic chemistry was brought together with autumn redigging. At droughty weather water this garden culture, but you remember that the moisture surplus is even more dangerous to it, than shortcoming. Know when to stop with watering, observe agrotechnology, and your harvest of potatoes will be higher, than in previous years.
