If you want to get large, well-developed heads of garlic, you should not sit back.
You can achieve what you want by using a trick in your garden that was known to our grandmothers.
And it consists of tying garlic leaves into a knot.
This should be done to help the main flow of substances to be redirected from the above-ground part down to the “roots”.
This process also occurs on its own, starting around mid-summer. However, unlike onions, it cannot boast of any particular speed.
For this reason, savvy gardeners resort to tying garlic leaves into a knot.
The right time for the “operation” comes a couple of weeks after removing the arrows and usually falls in mid-July.
In addition to the fact that this method is believed to make garlic grow larger, it should also be stored much longer.
