Published: 2024-11-22 Author: mysheen
Last Updated: 2024/11/22, The root of potato planted with tuber is whisker root, there is no straight root; potato seed planting is divided into main root and lateral root, here we mainly talk about fibrous root system. Potato is a shallow root crop, most of the root system is distributed in the soil surface 40 cm, generally no more than 70 cm, in sandy soil, the root depth can also reach more than 1 meter. The root system of early-maturing varieties is generally not as developed as that of late-maturing varieties, and the root distribution of early-maturing varieties is shallow, while that of late-maturing varieties is wide and deep.
