Potato TipsPotatoes prefer virgin soil that has sufficient organic humus.  • Cut seed potatoes so that there is a maximum of two eyes or sprouts per piece. • Dip the wet cut side of the potato into wood ash. • Dig a trench 6” deep and mix Humisoil and Soil Life Starter into the soil at the bottom. • Place the cut potatoes into the trench 14” to 16” apart. With Bountea, roots, leaves, and stem will grow bigger and stronger. • Cover the potato pieces with 1” of soil. Apply Bountea Compost Tea with Root Web. • It is helpful in dry climates to lay a soaker hose on top of the soil in the trench before mounding up. • As the potatoes sprout up to 6”, mound up with soil or straw/soil mix, leaving only the top leaves above the soil. • Mound up two more times over the season so that the potatoes are buried up to 15” deep. • Apply Bountea Compost Tea with M3 (diluted 10:1) each time you mound up the potatoes, making sure to spray all the leaves, top and bottom. • If your soil tends to develop scab, treat with potassium and sulfur organic soil amendments. • At the first sign of potato blight, foliar spray with Bountea Compost Tea brewed with 1 tablespoon of QLC added to each gallon.
