Here’s how to plant your pre-sprouted potatoes:

1. Start by piercing the bottom of the bag before filling it with compost to a height of 10 cm.

2. Place the pre-germinated potatoes on the surface, making sure to spread them out well with a distance of 20 to 40 cm between each plant.

3. Spread the 45 grams of organic potato fertilizer evenly, making sure it does not touch the potatoes.

4. Add 5cm to 15cm of compost to cover the potatoes. Because of the moisture in the compost, you can go without watering for a week.

5. Once the potatoes start to sprout, you can unfold the edges of the bag and add more compost. Water if necessary, but don’t overwater.

6. In a few weeks, the potatoes will sprout and reach about ten centimeters. Separate the seedlings carefully and cover them with compost. Let them grow, watering lightly.

For best results, the bag should be exposed to a sunny location. Also, it is advisable to start planting between March and April for better harvests.
