Usually, a summer resident buys seeds for his garden in a store and consults with the seller regarding a specific variety.
But some gardeners exchange seeds with their neighbors, which does not always lead to good results.
There are reasons for this, and experienced gardeners do not recommend exchanging potatoes or other crops in the expectation that they will produce an incredible harvest.
Let's pay attention to the opinion of the expert of the online publication "Belnovosti" and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.
The thing is that if you plant unknown varieties in the beds, there is a chance of ruining the garden and getting a lot of problems.
Along with unchecked tubers, you can bring infections and invisible pest larvae into the garden.
That is why it is better to buy potatoes only from a trusted seller who treats the tubers against diseases and pests.
