Experienced gardeners resort to an effective remedy if the garlic they are growing has turned yellow only at the tips of the leaves.
Under such circumstances, the soil first becomes deoxidized.
After the procedure is completed, the plant is fed with potassium.
As reported by the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , it is important to fertilize garlic at the start of the growing season.
The procedure is necessary in order to obtain a large harvest.
In this case, you can use different types of fertilizers.
If we are talking about acidic soil, garlic can be "treated" with ash. About a month before digging.
But if the soil has a high pH level, there is no need to use ash.
It is worth remembering that ash contains a considerable amount of potassium, phosphorus, calcium and magnesium.
In spring, after the snow melts, nitrogen fertilization is allowed, which will stimulate the growth of the garlic root system.
As soon as winter garlic begins to sprout in the spring, you can add another fertilizer.
It is recommended to carry out fertilizing with watering.
By the way, you can also use potassium chloride for fertilizing, since garlic tolerates chlorine well.
Dissolve three tablespoons in a bucket of water. Pour a glass of the mixture under each plant.
