04.01.2024 09:22

Not all summer residents "fill" the holes before planting, but this can only be allowed if the soil is extremely fertile and disinfected.

In all other cases, this simple action will significantly improve the quality of the harvest, as well as make it unusually impressive.

When planting potatoes, you can pay attention to both natural additives and industrial complexes, noted Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, an agronomist and landscape designer.

What options should you focus on?

Ash

This accessible component will make the potato's "stay" in the soil more comfortable. The vegetable will feel great in such an environment.

Also, do not forget that the fertilizer contains a lot of nutrients. A few spoons of ash can be mixed with the same amount of sand and sent to the hole.

Nitroammophoska

This fertilizer for potatoes is one of the best. If you add it when planting, it will increase the yield even if the soil is poor.

We take a small spoon of the industrial complex, mix it with the soil and fill the hole.

Compost

This option is suitable for those who like natural fertilizers in matters of crop care. For one bush you can take about one and a half glasses of fertilizer.

For "tired" soil

Even in this case, you can significantly increase your chances of getting a luxurious harvest. You need to prepare a special "cocktail" that will help restore the "tired" beds.

To do this, you need to take five grams of potassium sulfate and superphosphate, and also add fifteen grams of ammonium nitrate.

Do not forget that it is important to mix industrial compounds with soil.
