Potatoes always sprout early. 90% of gardeners know this method of planting, but for some reason they don’t use it
If you want to get an earlier harvest, then the potatoes should be sprouted before planting.
It is believed that the easiest way of germination is dry.
To do this, you need to place the tubers in a box and leave them in a warm room.
This should be done approximately 20 days before planting day.
This time will be enough for sprouts no more than one and a half centimeters long to appear on the tubers.
Three days before planting, you can treat the seed material against pests.
It is recommended to use any product from specialized stores. After the procedure, it is necessary to leave the tubers so that they have time to dry.
You can start planting only when the soil warms up to 11 degrees at a depth of 11 centimeters.
The tubers are usually planted at a depth of 10 cm at a distance of 30 cm from each other. The distance between rows can be 60-70 cm.
