    10-11 pounds of potatoes for the costs of $3 of fertilizer 👍

    Good little experiment Nick, just one question, what does the sulphur do? and should I be adding it to my next lot of potatoes? (Got some to sow in a while for Christmas) Thanks Pete.

    • @nickthegardener.1120
      @nickthegardener.1120  5 месяцев назад

      @@Petetrenouth hi Pete it helps lower the pH and it's the next nutrient after npk that plants need. It should be added to the compost or soil as early as possible so the soil life can eat it and convert it to available nutrients and convert to sulphuric acid to lower pH. I've never included it before with my potatoes before but want to maximise my Sspc yield.👌🥔😁👌👍

    Great video: I suggest it is possible the yield difference may have been more to do with variety than original seed potato size.
    Like you I keep the compost working but on a crop rotation over several years organically fertilising as needed. I always plant leeks, onions, shallots and garlic in the potato compost the same autumn. Today when recycling some shallot compost to use for cabbage plants I discovered a free potato. I had had one of those very tiny potatoes that got missed during harvest produce a spud at least ten times its size. I remember pulling the top out as a weed so the yield may well have been greater if left alone. The point being it was free and even the tiny ones can produce some sort of crop. I usually just add the little fellows to a stew but think I'll experiment with a few in small pots next year just to see.
