Basic information about culture

When choosing potato varieties for the Black Earth Region or other regions, you should take into account such parameters as:

• Yield indicators - for the Chernozem strip, Dutch varieties are the best options for planting. If the soil is prepared for planting, it is well irrigated, then the yield indicators of these varieties reach 750 centners per hectare. To do this, you need to choose tubers that are not damaged, large enough;

Potatoes are the basis of a tasty and satisfying potato is the basis of a tasty and satisfying diet, so it should take a special place in the gardening, so it should take a special place in the garden

• The potential of the variety - potatoes, actively sown and cultivated in the territories of our country, show a lower yield, but do not degenerate longer than others - you can use new tubers for planting within 5 years (they need to be harvested from the best bushes);
• Features of the soil - the depth of the fertile layer, cultivation. It is important to apply fertilizers in a timely manner so that the tubers receive a sufficient amount of nutrients;
• Terms of formation, ripening of potato tubers. In the case when the early variety is the priority, you need to choose Timo, Zhukovsky early, Sprint, as well as vegetable varieties called Explosion or Alena. In the conditions of the Black Earth Region, the first crop can be harvested 1.5 months after germination. To increase yields, it is recommended to use shelters that will protect the potatoes from heat, wind or heavy rainfall.

Varietal characteristics and other indicators should be taken into account before planting in prepared soil.

In 90% of cases, the early ripening variety demonstrates resistance to such a problem as late blight. This is explained by the rapid formation and maturation of tubers, harvesting 2-3 weeks (sometimes a new crop can be harvested 1 month earlier than others) earlier than 70% of potato varieties known and popular among summer residents or professional farmers.

When choosing variations or combinations of varieties that ripen earlier than others, it should be borne in mind that their shelf life is much shorter than usual, since the tubers have a short dormancy period. Those who grow potatoes for harvesting for the winter are advised to give preference to medium-ripening varieties: Gala, Nevsky (they show high yields with a short shelf life in conditions where there is no special room). Vostok and Symphony show good results in terms of growth rates.

With proper care, yields will be high. It must be remembered that they are not suitable for the middle zone (Russia), since they are very demanding on weather conditions: temperature drops, excessive humidity or drought will not allow them to form a good harvest.

One of the most productive varieties of the main vegetable for many people is Nevsky (expert studies indicate that productivity and quality are close to the Dutch varieties). It allows you to collect high yields, but requires special storage conditions - if the temperature in the room (cellar) is not low enough, the tubers will begin to germinate quickly, which will not allow them to be stored for a long time or used for sowing next year. This indicator is an important varietal feature that must be taken into account in the process of selecting the optimal one for growing potatoes.
