Busting seeds white, my choice, 3 kg

White mustard is rich in nitrogen, gray and phosphorus, scares away the smell of some pests, with dense sowing, the weed will completely drown out, and the root system will loosen the upper layer of the soil. In addition, an important factor in favor of mustard is the suppression of the wireworm on the site, which used to be very harmful to the potato.

Sowing: For a white mustard grown on the Siderates, the Sowing rate is 200-250 grams per hundredth of the Earth. A standard package weighing 1 kg is designed for 4 acres. With this sowing to a depth of 2 cm, mustard gives outlets for about 4-6 days, after about 1.5 months reaches a height of 15-20 centimeters.

The timing of the sowing of mustard: White mustard can withstand frosts up to - 6 ° C, so you can sow it since March. At this time, the earth is very moisturized, so watering is not required - this is an undoubted advantage of spring planting. While the soil warms up for the adoption of vegetable seeds, Siderat’s biomass will have time to grow. Since Siderat is not the main culture, it is more logical to sow it after the main work, usually the second half of May, in some years even the beginning of June. Such a late sowing will allow mustard later to bloom, respectively, it will have to be mowed later and thereby reduce the number of operations with the site. Also, the main period of plant development and the beginning of its fermentation in the soil (after sealing) will have to be in June-July, the most time to scare off the pest and overcome the weed. If you sow mustard in the winter, the sowing period is usually transferred to the end of August - the beginning of September, so the plant will have time to grow to good green mass.
