How to use the product
Potato Kemira can be used both in granules and with solutions. The granular version is used before planting the plants, before digging the earth. First, abundant watering of the soil is carried out, this helps the plants to better assimilate.
It is preferable to do this in the spring, when planting is just planned. To prepare the solution, 20 g of fertilizer per 30 l of water is required, but if the fertika is used for open ground, a solution that is denser in concentration can be made (10 g of fertilizer in 10 l of water).
It is unprofitable to use the product by the scattering method, therefore it is recommended to use a sprayer to spray seedlings. If the granules are applied without liquid, they are mixed with an earthy mixture and then watered. Before that, they dig up all the soil to get rid of the weeds. Dosage - 50-70 g.
When applying, it is important not to allow the ferry to come into contact with the plants, since young seedlings are subject to stress and burns, which can be caused by improper use of the drug. Potato Kemira is also used dry, if you pour it into the hole when planting a plant.
Sprinkle earth over the granulated material before placing the tubers. Before use, the soil must be mixed with fertilizer so that the tubers and granules do not come into contact. 15-20 g of ferments is enough to fertilize each tuber.
During the growing season, top dressing is also done. To do this, use 30-40 g of dry fertilizer, then watering the soil. This will help the plants grow better and be disease resistant. With proper feeding, the seedlings acquire the necessary strength. The instruction gives complete information on how to use the tool correctly.
