In early spring, many gardeners begin planting spring garlic.

In this case, the harvest can be collected not only in the middle, but also at the end of summer, as well as at the beginning of autumn.

The advantage of spring garlic over winter garlic is that it can be stored for a much longer period.

But the disadvantage of garlic planted in spring is that it does not have the highest yield. However, proper fertilization of this crop will help solve the problem.

Fertilizer for spring garlic

At the first stage of cultivation, the garden crop needs nitrogen. Thus, the yield of spring garlic can be increased by adding ammonium nitrate.

For each square meter of the area, 15-20 grams of the product should be used.

The procedure should be carried out immediately after the shoots appear. After half a month, it is advisable to feed the plant in a similar way.

As soon as the bulbs begin to form, the soil should be watered with water containing certain additives.

For each square meter - a bucket of liquid with the following components: superphosphate (20 grams), potassium chloride (10 grams) and ammonium sulfate (10 grams).
