Exposure: sunny. Soil: deep, fertile and well-loosened.\u003cbr\u003e Potatoes are very sensitive to drought, so watering should be generous during tuber formation and growth. Once the foliage has faded, watering is no longer necessary, as the tubers may not keep as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eEarthing up is essential as the stems emerge, to support the plants, encourage tuber development, and prevent them from turning green. Start earthing up the plants as soon as they reach 25 cm. This involves burying the bottom of the stems, bringing the soil back towards the plant using a hoe. Repeat this process during the first month of the plant's development. Hoe occasionally between the plants to aerate the soil and eliminate weeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Potato harvest\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Harvest before approximately 110 days of cultivation from July to September.
