00:00The potato plant grows through distinct stages.
00:03It begins with sprouting, as the seed potato's eyes awaken underground.
00:08Next comes root development, where fine roots spread into the soil.
00:14Shoots then emerge, pushing upward toward the surface.
00:17During vegetative growth, leaves expand and capture sunlight.
00:23Tuber initiation follows, as stolons begin forming beneath the soil.
00:27In tuber bulking, these potatoes swell with stored nutrients.
00:33Flowering signals maturity above ground,
00:36while maturation brings yellowing foliage as energy shifts below.
00:41Finally, at harvest, fully developed potatoes rest beneath the soil, completing the cycle.
