How to plant sprouted potatoes in pots

Sprouted potatoes can be planted. Apply wood ash on the cut surface of the sprouted potatoes, and then place them in a place with bright light. Let them dry for 1-2 days, and then plant them in loose, breathable soil that contains a lot of nutrients. This way, the soil has strong air and water permeability, and a large number of potatoes can be produced.

The sprouted potatoes in potted plants will bear fruit after 90 days, because the growing period of potatoes is relatively short, the specific time is 3 months. In addition, different varieties have different fruit-bearing time. Potatoes mainly rely on tuber reproduction. When planting in the soil, it is necessary to ensure that the soil has strong drainage capacity to avoid water accumulation in the pot soil. Start fertilizing 30 days after the potatoes are planted, generally once every 30 days.

How to plant sprouted potatoes

First, cut the sprouted potatoes into pieces, making sure that each piece has at least one plump bud. Then disinfect and dry them. Choose leaf mold or peat soil, and mix it with river sand and other granular soil to prepare the soil. Then place the sprouted potatoes with the bud facing upwards in the soil. Choose a larger flowerpot, and it is best to put organic fertilizer at the bottom of the pot. Finally, cover it with 2-3 cm of soil.
