Potato is one of the four major food crops in human society today, second only to rice, corn and wheat. Although it looks ordinary, it has high nutritional value. Because of its extremely low fat content, potato is regarded by people as Ideal healthy food.

How to grow potatoes?The growth of potatoes requires a good soil environment, so you should prepare the farmland in advance before planting, and choose farmland with sufficient light and good drainage for maintenance. When preparing the farmland, try to ensure that the soil is loose and at the same time give it suitable organic fertilizer. Sufficient base fertilizer is beneficial to the growth of potatoes.

1. Selection and preparation of potatoes
First select high-quality potato varieties. Before planting potatoes, place them in a warm environment, and plant them after the potatoes have sprouted. Cut the sprouted potatoes into pieces to ensure that there are sprout spots on each small piece of potato, so as to ensure the normal germination of the potatoes, and then stick the cut potatoes with plant ash to prepare for planting.

2. Soil
The most suitable soil for potato growth is light soil. Because tubers grow in the soil, they need enough air for root respiration to proceed smoothly. Light soil is more fertile, not sticky and heavy, and has good air permeability. It is not only beneficial to the growth of tubers and roots, but also increases the starch content.

3. Planting
Put the processed potatoes in the prepared soil. The interval between each small potato is about 15cm. After planting, water according to the dry humidity of the soil. The next step is the later maintenance to ensure that the potatoes grow smoothly and mature.

4. Management after planting
In the later maintenance process, it is necessary to control the environment's light, water and nutrients. Ensure sufficient light and moist soil. After the seedlings grow out, you need to apply a thin liquid fertilizer to promote the growth of the seedlings, and then wait patiently for them to mature. Under normal circumstances, sowing in spring can be harvested in summer.
