Abstract | The article investigates the effect of different norms and methods of plant growth regulator Vermystym application on plant height, number of stems in a bush, stand density, yield and quality of two varieties of potato tubers. It is found that pre-planting cultivation of potato tubers with Vermystym in a dose of 8 l/t and double spraying of potato tops of mid-season potato variety Roko and middle-late potato variety Picasso in periods of bud-formation and blooming at a rate of 14l/ha increased the number of stems, average potato weight yield, and the content of dry matter and starch. According to the conducted research, an environmentally-friendly potato production gain method is developed. | ||
