Garlic is never planted next to these vegetables: it will not grow and the entire crop will rot.

Failures with the garlic harvest can haunt 50% of gardeners.

Experienced gardeners periodically encounter the problem of poor harvests and poor storage quality of garlic bulbs.

There could be several reasons, and one of them is bad neighbors.

What plants should garlic not be planted with?

Plants that require heavy watering throughout the season are not good companions for garlic.

Cabbage, cucumbers, and zucchini will want to get a lot of moisture, but for garlic such neighbors are like death - the heads will rot and will not grow.

After which plants do you plant garlic?

To grow more garlic, it is planted in beds after cabbage, cucumbers, zucchini, eggplants, peas, winter wheat, and mustard.

What does the garlic harvest depend on?

The yield of garlic will be high or low depending on the variety and growing conditions.

Soil

The soil and its chemical composition play an important role. Large and tasty garlic will grow on loamy soil with neutral or low acidity. The soil should be fertilized with mineral and organic fertilizers.

Top dressing

The amount of fertilizing varies depending on the soil composition and weather conditions.

During the growing season, when the green mass is growing, garlic is fed with liquid mullein. A yeast solution can be used as irrigation, which will saturate the soil with useful substances and strengthen the immunity of plants.

Pests and diseases

Fungicides are used to combat garlic diseases, and insecticides will protect plantings from pests.
