Don't despair if you're tired of buying tasteless garlic at the grocery store.
With a little effort, you can grow your own garlic with huge, juicy heads that will delight you to the core.
If you want to grow garlic of truly exceptional flavor and size, there are a few key steps to take. The most important one is proper feeding.
What does garlic need?
Garlic is a relatively unpretentious crop that can surprise you with a large harvest with proper care: fertilizing and watering.
If you want to harvest large, flavorful garlic bulbs that will last all winter, it's important to give the garlic the nutrients it needs in time.
Fertilizing garlic in spring
In early spring, offer garlic ammonium sulfate.
It is this fertilizer that is good for feeding garlic at the stage of its awakening. And this can be done before the emergence of shoots.
This type of feeding will help the garlic feathers stay green and not turn yellow throughout the entire growing season.
Don't be afraid to apply fertilizer literally on the snow; ammonium sulfate will penetrate the soil with melt water and begin to dissolve, releasing active substances.
Benefits of top dressing
Garlic roots receive the sulfur and nitrogen they need.
Fertilizer can be reapplied if necessary, when the garlic feather grows 10-15 cm.
Whether you're an experienced gardener or new to growing garlic, you now know everything you need to grow healthy, strong garlic and a bountiful harvest.
