Potato seeds treatment

[potatoman]

I am an Agronomist from Egypt , I will present my experience in growing potato , one of the most important issues to have high potato yield is to plant good seeds in good land.
also seed treatment is recommend practice in potato growing, I have my ( mix) of :-
1- Humic acid & fulvic Acid
2- Iron ( EDHA).
3- fungicides ( systemic & protectant ) & insecticide

* this seed treatment result in :-
1- Accelerates the emergence of potato
2- Good and homogenized stands
3- protect the crop from late blight infection up to 45 day from emergence without any preventive sprays !!!!
4- Significant increase in potato yield per feddan.

not a record, plenty of posts don't draw any replies. You weren't asking a question, just presenting some information.

Your information seems more relevant to farmers with a big area, in which they are interested in increasing yield. Most of us here are just backyard gardeners (with a wide range of whether "back yard" means a few raised beds or a few acres). Also I think most of us here in the states don't really grow potatoes from seed, but from seed potatoes. That is taking potatoes that have sprouted eyes, cutting them in pieces and planting the pieces.

So you didn't get replies, because it was information not too relevant to how a lot of us grow potatoes.

But welcome to the forum, any way....
