There are many different varieties of potatoes, differing in the size and shape of the tubers, the color of the peel and pulp. But among them, red or pink types of crops stand out especially. They are distinguished by their presentation, uniformity of fruits and versatility of use. This explains their high popularity among gardeners and consumers. However, red potato varieties may have different shades of flesh. Therefore, when choosing, you need to take this into account.
The juice of red and pink potato varieties is used for medicinal purposes.
General characteristics of red potatoes
Red or pink potato varieties have a delicate taste and retain their shape well during heat treatment. Therefore, they are best suited for frying. In addition, the red tint of the peel is due to the increased content of antioxidants in the fruit, and it is these components that protect the body from the negative effects of free radicals. They also increase the elasticity of the walls of blood vessels, enhance collagen synthesis, which is responsible for the condition of the skin, and strengthen the retina.
The starch content in red and pink potato varieties is slightly lower than in yellow and white varieties. Therefore, they are less boiled during heat treatment. But this does not mean that red varieties are not suitable for making purees. Based on many of them, this dish is obtained with a delicate, uniform consistency. Simply, when choosing a variety, you need to take into account its main characteristics and whether it belongs to the culinary type.
Diseases and pests
There are potato diseases of fungal, bacterial and viral origin. In most cases, such diseases are either not treated or are treated at the very beginning of the disease. The problem can only be solved by prevention
Alternaria blight
A disease of fungal origin. Control measures - selection of resistant varieties, soil and cellar cultivation, proper storage of tubers, spraying with fungicides, use of crop rotation, cleaning the garden and burning post-harvest plant residues
Fusarium
Also a fungal disease, it is detected when potatoes bloom. The leaves lighten, as if with chlorosis, then turn brown at the edges and wither. The so-called Fusarium leaf wilt. The infection then spreads to the stems. In wet weather, the bushes die within a few days.
Scab
Another fungal disease of potatoes, which, unlike others, affects only tubers. Scab does not lead to the death of the plant.
Pest Control
Numerous potato pests are divided into two groups:
- Those that cause harm to tubers are wireworms, mole crickets, and nematodes.
- Damaging the entire plant. Pest number 1 is the Colorado potato beetle.
Everyone knows the striped American enemy of potatoes. The greatest damage to the plant is caused by its bright orange larvae. If you do not take urgent measures when it is detected, the Colorado plant will destroy a significant part of the plantings in a few days. Control measures from manual collection to the use of chemicals.

Potatoes must be protected from insects. For this purpose, insecticides such as Aktara, Decis, and Prestige are used. Plants with a rich aroma are planted in neighboring beds. The beds are cleared of weeds.

When should you choose this species for cultivation?
Important!
You need to choose red potatoes for growing in accordance with the climatic conditions of growth, soil type and method of use.
It is believed that
pink pulp is the most useful
, but there are very few such potato varieties. Potatoes with red skin contain many vitamins and nutrients. Most often, it is recommended to use this type of culture for medicinal purposes.
Varieties can be early, mid-season or late.
Caring for an American
Before the sprouts emerge, you need to harrow the soil 2 or 3 times - this will destroy the earthen crust and remove weeds. Subsequently, regular loosening and weed removal are also necessary. Hilling is carried out when the plant height is approximately 12 cm, the second time - after 20 days.
The first feeding should be done when the bushes grow to 12 cm. One tablespoon of urea per 10-liter bucket of water, half a liter of solution for each bush. This should be done after rain or watering.
The next feeding is during the formation of flower buds. Two tablespoons of ash and one tablespoon of potassium sulfate per 10-liter bucket of water. Also half a liter for the bush.
The third feeding is done during the flowering of plants and accelerates the formation of tubers. One glass of mullein and two tablespoons of superphosphate per 10-liter bucket of water. The proportions are the same.
You need to water the potatoes at the rate of 3 liters of water per bush. Usually this is 3–5 times during the growing season, less in rainy summers.
Gypsy
This is a rather rare variety, which is sometimes mistakenly called Slavyanka and Kubinka, and in some regions the old-fashioned names are Negritenok and Chugunka. The abundance of names already indicates its popularity and productivity. The tubers have a characteristic eggplant color and flesh with purple veins. The plant requires fertile soil and constant moisture. The taste of the fruits is excellent; almost any dish can be prepared from them. True, this needs to be done within 2-3 months - the capricious Gypsy is not stored for a long time, and over time it acquires an unpleasant aftertaste. And for some reason the Colorado potato beetles don’t like the crop, and it avoids late blight.
| Purpose | Productivity (kg/100 sq.m) | Tuber weight (g) | Maturation (days) | Flesh color | |
| 320-400 | 90-150 | 70-90 | White with veins | ||

Root crops can be eaten not only by nematodes, but also by May beetle larvae. To prevent soil contamination by insects, the preparation “Nitrophoska”, “Prestige” or “Decis” is applied to the site in the fall. These products are recommended to be used when the first shoots appear. Insect control is carried out once a month. To repel pests, gardeners plant aromatic herbs in neighboring beds: basil, dill, and flowering plants.
During the entire growing season, plants are sprayed with Fitosporin, Actellik or Bordeaux mixture.

| 1 | Technical ripeness of root crops occurs after 55 days. During this period, gardeners harvest 338 kg from one hundred square meters. When harvesting on day 45, the figure drops to 173 kg. The crop showed the maximum yield in the Moscow region, 443 kg |
| 2 | medium-sized bush, small leaves. Inflorescences red-violet, small |
| 3 | tubers are shaped, with a smooth surface, small eyes. The pulp has a high content of carotene |
| 4 | average tuber weight 164 g. Seedlings weighing 90 g are used for planting |
| 5 | The level of starch in root vegetables is average. For early digging 10%. With a later harvest, the figure increases to 15% |
