Many people grow winter garlic, so it is worth knowing the most important rules.
The main task will be to get rid of the main mistakes.
What do they consist of?
Planting depth and timing
It is important to calculate the ideal moment for planting. Garlic should take root before the onset of frost, but sprouting should not be allowed.
It is also worth remembering that planting material needs to be planted deeper, compared to spring crops.
Organics
It is definitely not worth adding this type of fertilizer in fresh form: it will only harm the garlic, making it vulnerable to diseases.
Compost or humus must be rotted: in this case they will be beneficial.
Soil
Winter garlic will not grow well in clay and sandy soils. Acidic soil is also not suitable. You will not get a good harvest if the soil is poor.
Therefore, it is worth first carrying out a number of works to improve the quality of the soil.
