How to Grow Large and Healthy Garlic: The Main Secret
Your garlic will grow large and strong even if you don’t spend money on expensive planting material.
The method for obtaining exactly this vegetable was shared by the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, scientist-agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
To do this, you will have to start growing garlic from bulblets - since aerial bulblets do not come into contact with the soil and are formed, as they say, “from scratch”, they are usually healthy.
There is another advantage – there are a lot of them (sometimes there are more than 100 pieces in one arrow), which means that you will not have to suffer from a lack of planting material.
But let's not hide the whole truth: this method of growing garlic has its drawbacks.
Firstly, you will only be able to harvest in the second year.
Secondly, the germination rate of bulblets is lower than that of garlic planted as cloves.
And thirdly, not all gardeners manage to successfully plant garlic bulblets. Some gardeners complain that the end result is something unintelligible, so there is still a certain risk.
