In April – early May, winter garlic is especially in need of nitrogen, which it needs to grow green mass.
If there is a shortage of this element, the plant will have a weak appearance. Even partial yellowing of the feathers is possible.
To prevent this from happening, experienced gardeners use urea or carbamide. In these fertilizers, nitrogen is in a form that is quickly accessible and easily absorbed by plants.
To carry out the first feeding, you will need to dilute one and a half spoons of the composition in a 10-liter bucket of water, and then use the resulting solution for watering.
The mentioned fertilizers can be replaced with ammonium nitrate, which contains both quickly assimilated nitrogen and “long-lasting” nitrogen.
In this case, the feeding solution is prepared from 2 tablespoons per the same volume of water.
Finally, you can resort to the help of ammonia.
To prepare ammonia-based fertilizer for garlic, you need to measure out three tablespoons of 10% ammonia and mix them in 10 liters of water.
