In the middle of summer it is time to think about the quality of the harvest, especially about the garlic harvest.

The plant does not require special care, but it is important that the heads grow large.

Summer residents were told what kind of fertilizer works real miracles with the garlic harvest.

How to feed garlic in July

Garlic is sensitive to a lack of nitrogen in the soil, which causes its feathers to turn yellow.

And in order for garlic cloves to grow large, phosphorus and potassium are needed.

After this, all that remains is to keep the garden bed in order and water the plant on time.

How to fertilize with nitrogen

If the feathers have started to turn yellow, you can sprinkle the garlic bed with urea at a rate of 25-30 grams per 1 sq. m.

Phosphorus and potassium

To grow large heads of garlic, you need to add a phosphorus-potassium supplement.

To do this, dilute 20 grams of magnesium sulfate, superphosphate and potassium sulfate in 10 liters of water.

Fertilizer consumption is 1 liter per 1 sq. m.

After the July feeding, garlic does not require any other care except watering and weeding.
