Hello all , today we finaly plant our patatoes !
1. Preparation of seedlings / seeds /.
Rooting is a compulsory event for accelerated crop development, resulting in a 10-15 days shortening of the growing season, and yield increases by 20-25%.
Rooting takes place 40 days before planting, the potatoes are placed in warm and dark rooms until the tubers are awakened. They are then illuminated to form healthy and hardened sprouts.
2. Planting
- April 15th to May 30th depending on the altitude. It is best to keep soil temperature 7-8 degrees.
• Sowing rate - 250-300 kg per hectare depending on the fraction of the seedlings.
