When digging, phosphorus and potash fertilizers must be added to the soil. In the spring, the soil is dug up again and the same fertilizers are applied again;
  • seeds before planting can be prepared and etched for diseases, for this they need to be kept in potassium permanganate for about twenty minutes, then rinsed and dried, then the seeds are placed on wet gauze and covered with it, and as it dries, they are watered with a little cold water;

After sowing, the seeds are slightly sprinkled with earth, you can also cover them with foil so that they germinate faster;
