2. Slava1305.Forks of this variety are formed 2 weeks later than their subspecies. However, their weight is about - 9 kg. Productivity is also higher and reaches up to 12 kg.from 1 square.m. But it is worth noting that the forks of Glory 1305 are less dense and stored worse.

Then, before the appearance of the first shoots, the boxes are placed in a warm place, with a temperature regime of 18 - 20 ° C. As soon as the first sprouts appear, the container is transferred to the window sill, which should be well lit by the sun's rays and have an air temperature of 10 - 12 ° C.
