Potatoes are susceptible to a number of dangerous diseases, including fusarium.
This insidious disease can manifest itself not only in the garden, but also during storage of the harvested crop, which is extremely serious and unpleasant.
Therefore, it is necessary to know how to protect yourself from fusarium, says Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist and landscape designer.
What measures can be considered?
Before landing
First of all, it is recommended to stick to crop rotation. If you do not periodically change the place where you plant potatoes, the quality of the harvest will be worse every year.
You will also have to constantly fight against pest attacks and diseases.
And immediately before the planting procedure, it is recommended to process the material.
At the first signs of illness
If you notice dangerous symptoms, then first of all you should pay attention to a reliable and proven method. It consists of the following.
It is recommended to take a small piece of soap and pre-dissolve it in water. Then pour the resulting mixture into a container with a liter of milk.
Don't forget to also add 30-35 drops of regular iodine.
Thanks to this method, fusarium will retreat.
