Growing: Potatoes prefer to grow on slightly acidic fertile land without the threat of stagnant water. For potatoes, you cannot use the area after cultivating other nightshade crops: tomatoes, peppers, eggplant. It is necessary to apply crop rotation when cultivating potatoes. Good predecessors for him are legumes and herbs. The best harvest, of course, is obtained when planting potatoes on virgin and fallow lands, but for summer residents who grow root crops for their own use, it is enough to sow the field after the autumn harvesting of vegetables with white mustard, rapeseed or barley, then dig in the seedlings into the soil. This simple procedure enriches the soil with organic compounds, improves the mechanical properties of the soil, prevents the development and spread of diseases, and suppresses the growth of weeds on the site. Of vegetables, root crops are also suitable as precursors of potatoes: radishes, carrots, beets, as well as cucumbers and green crops. It is enough for the soil to warm up to 5–7 ° C at a depth of 10 cm, as you can start planting. Since early potato varieties have strong growth vigor and are more demanding on the composition of the soil, the Red Scarlett variety includes the best lands: fertile, illuminated, located on the southern or southwestern slopes. Ideal plots for potatoes are protected by a forest belt on the north side. After planting, the potatoes are not watered: the Red Scarlett tubers have enough own resource for germination, but the weeds will definitely be delighted with additional moisture. Before the emergence of shoots, light surface loosening of the soil is carried out, during which the aeration of the tubers is improved, thin filamentous roots of weeds are cut off.
