Disinfection is a mandatory procedure that every gardener who plants garlic in individual cloves must perform.
Such an event, according to the expert of the online publication Belnovosti, scientist-agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , is intended to destroy possible phytopathogens present here.
For this purpose, you can use both specialized drugs and folk remedies.
For example, you can immerse the seed material in a solution of the contact fungicide "Maxim". For 2 kg of cloves you will need 2 liters of water and 4 ml of the preparation.
The garlic should stay in this solution for half an hour.
Another option is a solution of “Fitosporin”, to prepare which you need to measure out 20 drops of the product and pour them into a container filled with a liter of water.
Garlic cloves must be soaked in Fitosporin for two hours.
Those who are not looking for easy ways will like a product prepared on the basis of ash that remains after the combustion of organic matter.
1 glass of the remains of combustion should be poured with a liter of boiling water and the resulting mixture should be simmered in a water bath for 15 minutes. After the broth has cooled, the transparent liquid should be drained, and the garlic should be immersed in ash lye and left here for 1-2 hours.
