Garlic is considered an unpretentious garden crop.

To get a good harvest, it is not at all necessary to regularly care for the plant, or use expensive fertilizers and preparations.

However, this does not mean that there will definitely be no difficulties when growing a representative of the amaryllis family.

Garlic can easily encounter dangerous insects and rot.

The result will be yellowing of the feathers, rotting of the bulbs and poor storage of the harvested vegetables.

An expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh told about the composition that should be used to feed winter garlic in the spring so that the plant does not encounter diseases and grows huge.

How to prepare the remedy

Garlic needs nitrogen and calcium for protection and full growth.

The source of the first microelement should be ammonia, and the source of the second - chalk.

For 10 liters of water there should be 40 milliliters of ammonia and 200 grams of chalk.

After thorough mixing, you will get a liquid that needs to be poured under the plant.

The next procedure should be watering the garden crop with plain water.

After a couple of weeks, some complex mineral fertilizer should be added to the soil in the garlic bed.
