Dug up potatoes - feed the earth: what the gardener must do after harvesting

After the potato crop is harvested, gardeners need to take care not only of the proper storage of vegetables, but also think about a new crop.

After all, it is known that after harvesting potatoes, the soil in the garden is depleted. Over the past few months, the garden crop has been “pulling” nutrients out of it.

If you do not cultivate the land in the fall, then next season it is unlikely that you will be able to grow anything in the garden.

To avoid this, you need to add mineral or organic fertilizers to the soil, writes prostoway.

You can take potassium sulfate and superphosphate. And in order not to use “chemistry”, you need to make rotted manure (three kilos per square meter).

After fertilizing, the soil on the potato bed must be dug up.

This will ensure that onions, garlic, radishes or legumes can be grown in this garden next year.

Earlier we wrote about how to grow a second crop of potatoes.

And also that by mid-September it is necessary to plant strawberries, that the bushes have managed to gain strength, and next year to give a good harvest.
