It is necessary to apply spring fertilizer so that the leaves do not turn yellow and the fruits turn out large.

At this time, the crop needs nitrogen.

A solution of 3 tablespoons of ammonia and 10 liters of clean water will do. It is better to carry out foliar treatment in the evening so that the product does not evaporate quickly under the sun's rays.

But it should be taken into account that treatment with ammonia is a temporary measure. The fact is that such nitrogen, although quickly absorbed, is also quickly excreted.

It is necessary to inspect the plantings. If the tips of the feathers have turned white and the leaves themselves are curled, then this warns that the plants are experiencing a potassium deficiency. In this case, you can add a solution based on 10 liters of clean water and 3 tablespoons of potassium chloride.

At the same time, experts say that it is important not to use calcium and potassium at the same time, otherwise they will block each other.

It is advisable to take a three-day break between them.

In addition, it should be taken into account that on peat soils, garlic may suffer from copper deficiency. In this case, the problem will be solved by a solution of 5 liters of clean water and a teaspoon of any copper-containing preparation.
