Potato planting technology

Potatoes are one of the most common foods in everyone's daily life. The yield is very high. In addition, there are many uses. It is a relatively stable item in planting. So what do you need to know when growing potatoes? Let's find out how to grow it! Take a look at the places that are easily overlooked.

1. Whole soil

Before planting, it was natural to turn over the land first. When everyone was doing the soil, they simply dug the soil loose and then reserved a ditch at intervals. First of all, when loosening the soil, the soil should be dug a little deeper, otherwise the potato seedlings under the soil will be difficult to penetrate, which will easily lead to poor potato growth in the later stage. Generally, the excavation depth is about 25-30 cm, and then the interval of drainage channels is about 1.2 meters, so as to maximize the use of soil and facilitate management.

2. Cut potatoes into pieces and seed them

After the soil is leveled, it is necessary to prepare for seed treatment. First, cut the seedlings into pieces. Here, everyone may cut them randomly, but cutting seedlings is also particular. Generally, when the potato seeds basically have some sprouts, they can be cut into multiple pieces when cutting into pieces. They should be cut according to the distribution of sprouts. Several sprouts should be distributed on each piece, so that the germination probability is high. In addition, when cutting into pieces, pay attention to smooth the cut surface, otherwise it will be difficult to survive.

3. Plant ash wrapping

Do not rush to sow after cutting, these lumpy seedlings are very lack of nutrients at this time, plant ash is a good source of nutrients. Mainly sprinkle these plant ashes on the side that is cut open, sprinkle more, it doesn't matter, this is conducive to promoting potato germination. Many people planted it directly after sprinkling ash, resulting in a poor emergence rate. In fact, it was better to mix seedlings with plant ash, and then leave them for 1-2 days. When these massive buds grew more obviously, they would plant them again. Finally, the probability of emergence was higher.

4. Sowing

Finally, it is sown. When sowing, sow and bury according to the planting channel dug in advance. What should be paid attention to here is to face the incision to the soil and aim the bud at the top. Otherwise, it is difficult for the bud to break through the soil, and finally the emergence failure will occur. When sowing, the interval between each piece is about 30 cm. It doesn't matter if it is properly dense. It mainly depends on the soil conditions. If there is more plant ash, you can pad some under the seedlings when sowing, so that the potatoes grow faster.

The above is the potato planting technology, although this planting looks relatively simple, but in the middle of these details did not pay attention to the same kind of bad. Many people underestimate these problems, which leads to their own harvest is not ideal.
