In July, some owners of country plots tie garlic feathers into knots.
At first glance, this action is meaningless.
However, it later turns out that the procedure does have a positive effect.
The fact is that tied feathers indirectly contribute to the formation of large heads of garlic.
The mechanism of the process was described by an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
Why tie garlic feathers into a knot
If you do this, after a while the feathers will begin to dry out.
The result will be the redirection of important substances from the above-ground part of the plant to the underground part.
In other words, the garlic heads will begin to form more actively. As a result, the latter will be very large.
In addition, the harvest will have good shelf life.
How to tie garlic feathers into a knot
It is advisable to perform this procedure in the second third of the second summer month.
Tying the feathers into a loose knot should be done a couple of weeks after the arrows have been removed.
The knot must be formed from the upper leaves of the garden crop.
If the feathers are very long, you can make not one knot, but two at once.
Earlier, summer residents were told how to feed beets in June.
