Many summer residents dream of finding a means that allows them to grow large potatoes even in unfavorable weather conditions and in soil that is not the most suitable for garden crops.
Fortunately, such fertilizer exists. It should be used when planting potatoes.
Each hole should only require one teaspoon of this fertilizer.
What kind of miracle cure are we talking about? This question was answered by the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", scientist-agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
What to pour into the hole
The agent that promotes the formation of large tubers is ammonium sulfate. Only 1 teaspoon of fertilizer should be added to each hole.
Experienced gardeners have long come to the conclusion that such feeding allows you to get tubers that are a third larger than usual.
And all thanks to such an important microelement for the plant as sulfur.
What other fertilizers should be used?
It is also advisable to use unburned wood residues. But you can't put too much: for each hole - a maximum of 1 teaspoon.
Mustard cake is also an excellent means for increasing potato yields: one handful is enough for each hole.
Earlier, summer residents were told how to increase onion yields and reduce bolting.
