How to properly water potatoes in August to get a good harvest: not all summer residents know
August is an extremely important month for potatoes, so it is important to provide the vegetable with proper care.
Watering is certainly one of the most important procedures.
However, at the end of summer it is incredibly important to carry it out correctly, notes the scientist agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti.
What you should know about August moisture application?
First of all, it is important to understand that the crop maturation process can occur at different times, so it is important to evaluate the crop tops.
Once you notice that the plant part starts to look more wilted, this is an important signal to reduce the application of moisture.
Experienced gardeners at such moments limit watering to once every week and a half. With this approach, no more than three liters of liquid are spent on one bush.
Then you need to wait until the tops begin to dry out completely. At such moments, experienced gardeners understand that there is no longer any need to add moisture.
