Every garden owner makes sure that if you taste your own grown potatoes, you do not want another. And since spring is the beginning, this year you can already try it. And you will not even need a particularly demanding component for this. Because self-made potatoes can be grown both in flower beds and in cut grass, and even in bags of vegetation. The most important first step is to choose high-quality seedlings. Potatoes, which are allowed to germinate before planting, should not exceed 15 cm in length. Otherwise, they risk breaking. This will delay their harvest. Or, even worse, they will not come out at all.
The 2nd step to ensure a good harvest is to choose a good fertilizer. We feed the prepared soil. Very early varieties can be harvested already in 100 days. You will have to wait four months for a slow one. It has been said in villages that the bigger the potato, the more stupid the farmer will be, but the truth is that if you want to harvest as much as possible, put it in warm soil and heat it completely. And they will repay you.
If you decide to bet on the classics and grow potatoes in flower beds, do not forget to fertilize them well when forming columns. To the soil grown to a depth of 20 cm, you can also add composted soil, where you will plant sprouted tubers. At a distance of half a meter. Then roll the earth you gently press. To keep air supply. Growth in the mowed grass is similar. Just add a layer of compost to the mowed grass layer, which is also added to the potatoes during the process. Put the potatoes directly in it. And with freshly cut grass, cover them until the harvest. The third method, which has gained great popularity in recent years, is to grow potatoes in vegetable bags or special containers. First, prepare the soil mixed with cow manure. Potatoes do not miss anything. All that needs to be given to them is frequent watering. Which requires a settled drainage hole at the bottom of the container or bag. This method of growth is also possible on the balcony.
