Potatoes are a tasty, healthy and nutritious vegetable.
Therefore, every gardener who grows nightshades wants to have as many high-quality tubers as possible.
Good results can be achieved by performing one important procedure every time after a heavy rain.
Then the potato yield may be two or even three times higher than expected.
What procedure are we talking about?
After a downpour, you need to hill up the potato bed as soon as possible.
In other words, it is advisable to pile soil onto the lower part of the plant and loosen the soil on days when precipitation occurs.
If the soil cover is moist during hilling, then conditions arise for the formation of additional trunks on the garden crop.
Thus, the chances of a bountiful potato harvest become very high.
What to do if there is no rain for a long time
Sometimes it happens that dry and hot weather lasts for several weeks in a row.
In such a situation, you can use a method such as creating artificial rain.
We are talking simply about abundant watering of the potato bed.
It is enough to make the soil on the site moist with a watering can or hose, and then start hilling. The result will pleasantly surprise you in this case too.
