How to make garlic bonsai

Take garlic

Choosing sprouted garlic is more conducive to making potted plants. Peel the garlic cloves and place them in a small container. You can also peel the outermost skin of the garlic head, exposing the garlic cloves directly, and place them in a larger container.

Water changes

Just after planting, add water to soak the bottom of the garlic. This will help rooting.

After that, change the water every 1-2 days to keep the water fresh. In the early stage, you can keep the water at 3 consecutive days to facilitate fixation. After the roots are established, the water can be changed more frequently.

Generally, after hydroponics, roots will take shape on the same day, and green color can be seen after 2 to 4 days.
