There are at least two sure signs of high quality of the harvested garlic crop.
Firstly, it is sufficient density and firmness of the bulbs. Secondly, it is juiciness of the cloves.
The spicy plant will have exactly these characteristics if the plant is properly cared for.
We are talking about applying fertilizers and protecting against various diseases.
These two positive effects will be obtained simultaneously if you pay special attention to watering the garden crop. So, sometimes it is worth adding salt to the liquid.
Why do we need “salty” irrigation?
The procedure will help to replenish the deficiency of nutrients in the soil.
In addition, the plant will be protected from pests and diseases.
How to prepare the remedy
It is enough to add a couple of tablespoons of sodium chloride to a bucket of water.
After thorough mixing, you will get a liquid that should be poured into a watering can.
It is advisable to water the garlic with salt water three times during the first summer month. The interval between procedures should be 10 days.
