Hey guys today i will do update of my patatoes garden !





. Fertilizing.

In order to determine the types of fertilizers and their quantity, it is very important to make a soil analysis at every place where potatoes will be grown. Soil samples of the areas where the potatoes are grown are taken to determine soil stocking. Registered agricultural producers analyze soil samples are made free of charge at the Regional Agricultural Advisory Service.

With well-balanced basic fertilization and culture development, foliar feeding can be performed with Lactofol, Holthigrow, Kristalon. First spraying - phase-start (before flowering), secondly during flowering, third after flowering. It is important to know that foliar fertilizers do not have a good effect due to insufficient basic fertilization.

. Digging

• First planting after emergence - when the plants reach 8-10 cm, usually 14 to 21 days after planting.

• A second chopping / hacking / is done at a plant height of 20-25 cm in order to create optimum tubing conditions.
