You can deal with the problem quite quickly if you know one trick from experienced gardeners.

To do this, in June you need to carefully examine the feathers. If an arrow was noticed, it should be broken off with the feather. The feather is hollow, which means the cavity should be filled. You need to insert a match into it with the sulfur head down.

This will prevent moisture from getting inside, and therefore the appearance of rot.

As a result, you can collect high-quality and large bulbs.
