For- secondly, you can increase the chances of a rich harvest if you plant beet seedlings on the beds instead of seeds. But again, the soil must be prepared from autumn.

Soil

As it became clear, the main thing for a root crop is not the method of cultivation, but the condition of the soil .

Therefore, to begin with, it is necessary to have a minimal idea of ​​the condition of the soil.

If it is a heavy clay soil, you need to add peat in advance. The norm is 3 kilograms per 1 square meter.

In an acidic environment, you cannot do without dolomite flour.

Sandy soil needs humus, which is applied in the amount of 10 liters per one square meter of soil. Also, in this case, superphosphate and potassium sulfate are applied.

But if fresh manure is applied, it is probably possible to infect the soil with fungal diseases. When sowing beets with seeds, the seedlings will be unfriendly, weak, if they appear at all. Summer residents recommend using only 2-3-year-old humus.

Thus, having properly prepared the soil, you can harvest a rich harvest of beets regardless of whether seedlings were planted or seeds were sown.
