Every gardener dreams of garlic growing to the size of a human fist: such a product can be easily used in cooking.

But small garlic doesn't inspire enthusiasm.

To make garlic grow large, you only need to know three simple tricks.

What do they consist of?

Urea

This is the first feeding, which is usually carried out exactly 14 days after the first shoots appear. The expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", scientist agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh notes that at this stage of development the crop requires nitrogen.

20 grams of urea are diluted in a bucket. Three liters of fertilizer are used per square meter of plantings.

Superphosphate

This fertilizer is necessary for the formation of large heads, so do not forget to add this product. To do this, pour two spoons of superphosphate into a bucket of water.

Then four liters are used per square meter.

Ash

The remedy should be prepared as follows: a liter of ash is dissolved in a bucket of water and left for 48 hours. Then the infusion is filtered and used.

A bucket of water is enough for two square meters of garlic planting.
