After digging, the root crops are dried and distributed. The fruits left for planting the next year are stored in a separate room.

The soil should contain not only black soil, but also sandy soil. Before planting seeds, the soil is fed. To do this, use an ordinary bird or cow humus.

The second feeding is carried out when the flowers begin to develop. Watering is of moderate type so that the water does not stagnate.
