Even if you are the owner of an abandoned plot of land, you should not lose hope of tasting and treating your family with potatoes from your own garden.
How to plant potatoes in such conditions was explained by the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, scientist-agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
In this case, it is worth using a method of planting potatoes such as raised beds.
It is this that will allow you to achieve a good potato harvest and at the same time eliminate the need to develop virgin lands.
You will need to form beds, the length of which can be any, but the width should be approximately a meter.
The main condition is to raise the beds 20 cm above the surface of the rest of the soil.
Consider that you are already at the finish line: all that remains is to add fertilizer to the beds and you can start planting potatoes. The distance between the tubers should be 25-30 cm.
Once you have completed the work, you can leave the bed as is until the sprouts begin to grow.
During this period, you will need to do some hilling and, if necessary, add some additional soil.
