- 1). Cut the seed potatoes into sections about the size of a hen's egg. There should be at least two eyes per section.
- 2). Sprinkle the cut-up sections of potato with the sulfur powder to coat the cut surfaces and prevent fungus from ruining them before they get started growing.
- 3). Plant the potato seeds in 4-inch-deep trenches, 12 inches apart from each other. Make each row 3 feet apart from the previous row.
- 4). Sprinkle the sulfur powder over the potatoes after you push the soil back over them.
- 5). Fertilize as normal and push more soil up around the stems of the potato plants after they emerge, working the sulfur down into the soil around the potato plants.
