How to grow garlic and what fertilizer is good for growing garlic

1. How to plant

1. Time: Garlic planting requires a relatively low temperature environment. It can be planted in March-April in spring, or September-November in autumn. The climate in these two time periods is more suitable and meets the needs of growth. In the north, spring is the best choice, and in the south, autumn sowing is the main choice.

2. Soil preparation: Soil selection is the basis of growth. It is necessary to provide nutrient-rich sandy soil and also have a loose effect. Such soil can promote drainage and prevent water accumulation in the soil.

3. Garlic seeds: When choosing garlic seeds, you must choose large ones with no damage or collisions on the surface, and a full and white appearance. Such seeds can increase the survival rate. First, process the garlic seeds and place them in the sun to dry. Then remove the stem plate at the bottom, soak them in water for a while, and then take them out to dry.

4. Planting: Loosen the soil, dig a small hole about 4-5 cm, then sow the garlic seeds, cover with a thin layer of soil and water, keep the surrounding temperature suitable, and they will germinate after a period of time.

2. What fertilizer is good?

Garlic is a plant that requires a lot of sulfur, so during the maintenance process, it is necessary to apply sulfur-containing fertilizers, and at the same time, apply nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium elements reasonably. Among them, the demand for potassium fertilizer is the greatest, followed by nitrogen fertilizer, and then phosphorus fertilizer.
