Planting and growing peanuts.
I planted peanuts for the first time this year. I wonder whether I will get a harvest or not? Has anyone had experience with groundnuts? Write.

It didn’t grow for me, but I think it’s because of the soil
You know, we planted it last summer. Moreover, I bought packed peanuts at the store, I just took them unroasted. I soaked it for a couple of days. Then it went into the ground and the harvest was normal. The main thing is to tease him like a potato so that there is an ovary. I just had to work hard with getting him apart afterwards.
Growing in open ground. Seeds are planted in such soil when the temperature is set at 20 degrees. And the earth itself should warm up to at least 15 degrees. This often happens already in early May. When planting seeds, be sure to check the looseness of the soil, because as soon as the ovaries begin to form, the fruits go to ripen underground, literally burying themselves in it. Not only after sowing the seeds, but also when the very first shoots appear, peanuts should be constantly protected from thrushes and crows, which can easily destroy absolutely the entire crop. As for the seed planting scheme, it is no different from planting by seedlings.
You understand that our climate is not very suitable for peanuts. You will probably get a harvest, but the “nuts” are unlikely to be big. Your chances are good if you plant peanuts in a sunny location; they are a very heat-loving crop.By the way, how was the flowering? It should have been in June - early July.
