Who wants to get early harvests, the potatoes must be pre-germinated before planting.

Place the potatoes in flat boxes for pre-germination. It should be noted, that each crate contains only one layer of potatoes and that the part of each potato faces upwards, who shows the most eyes. Pre-sprouted potatoes must be short, have strong germs. That is why the boxes are placed in a room that is not too cold (12—15°C) on, which is light and airy. Sufficient light is of the greatest importance. To germinate the potatoes need about 6 weeks, so it has to start at the end of February.
