Many people plant winter garlic, so now is the time to think about enriching the soil.
Nutrient application procedures should be carried out approximately 20 days before planting.
What fertilizers are worth paying attention to?
Organics
You can choose between rotted compost and manure: both options will be a good choice. It is customary to take at least ten liters of fertilizer per square meter of planting.
Ash
This remedy will also not be superfluous: ash will level out acidity indicators and enrich the soil with nutrients. Half a liter of ash is added per square meter.
Dolomite flour
If the acidity indicators leave much to be desired, then it is worth using a proven remedy - dolomite flour. It is best to apply it according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Egg powder
This will be an excellent fertilizer for garlic, which will significantly improve the quality of the harvest. The dried shell is brought to a powder state in a coffee grinder.
After this, you will need to add the product to the soil. As a rule, several tablespoons are needed per bed.
