How To Plant Potatoes

Tom Cole from Capel Manor in London shows you how to plant potatoes from immature tubers called 'seed potatoes'.

Step 1: You will need(必备材料)

Seed potatoes
A garden fork
String
A spade


Step 2: Prepare the site(准备场地)

Potatoes should be planted in sunny sites in fertile, slightly acidic soil. For more information on soil types, see VideoJug's 'How To Test Soil pH'. Loosen the soil with a fork and remove any weeds or stones. If you have poor soil you may want to add organic matter or a multi-purpose fertiliser.

Step 3: Plant(种植)

Lay a piece of string on the soil as a guide so the potatoes are planted in a straight line. Position the potatoes along the string line at 40 centimetre (16 inch) intervals. Use a spade to dig individual holes for each potato at a depth of approximately 15 centimetres (6 inches).

Place each potato in its hole with the end with the most eyes pointing upwards. If you want to plant more than one row, they should be positioned at least 50 centimetres (20 inches) apart.

Step 4: Cover(覆盖)

Gently sweep the soil over the tubers so they are covered. As the shoots emerge through the soil, they should be re-covered with soil so that only the tip is exposed. This will encourage more potatoes to develop beneath the surface.

Step 5: Leave to grow(让它们自由生长吧!)

Keep the soil moist throughout the growing period. The potatoes should be ready for harvesting in early to late Summer, depending on the variety of potato.
