The practice of joint planting - we plant dill with garlic

Ogorodniki quickly realized the benefits of joint plantings of different crops, and therefore with enthusiasm are experiencing ever new combinations. And here is another successful option. Without cunnings, as always, it was not done.

We, like many ordinary workers, really love our six hundredths. Naturally, there is everything for a normal life in nature: a house, a garden, a vegetable garden and, of course, a place to relax, located right in the center of the site. And there are two chairs for receiving guests, a table, and most importantly - a hammock. In it, the head and the owner of our dacha, Ivan Yegorovich who loves to live without land, likes to rest from the affairs of the righteous, plants everything himself and carefully looks after the plantings. What does he not grow!

But his special pride is garlic with dill.

The technology of planting these crops is very simple. Ivan Yegorovich digs up the ground on two beds (each of which is 1 m wide 30 cm), and they are slightly concave in the middle, so that when watering the water does not drain into the aisles, and all absorbed into the ground.

Then he makes a row of holes across the beds (leaving 10 cm between them) and puts white slices of winter garlic in them to a depth of about 7 cm (I will not tell you the name of the variety - it is not known to us).

And now the most important secret of Ivan Yegorovich: without falling asleep holes with lobules, he fan, as it turns out, spreads seeds of dill Gribovsky on the whole surface of the beds. And only then the reverse side of the rake all equals and sprinkles it with humus or peat.

In this kind of beds go under the winter. He does not water them, does not make any chemical fertilizer. In the spring, when the snow comes down, it sprinkles the land again with humus or peat, so as not to be exposed Dill seeds.

During the summer, my Vanyusha pulls only large weeds in the beds. He pours a day later with water from barrels (if it's too hot, he does it every night). And you can not imagine how dill rises like a thick, velvety carpet. Oh, what flavor from him!

A how many useful insects are blissful in its thickets!

Neighborhood with dill is very like garlic, which invariably grows large, clean and never gets sick.

In the process of growth, he gives seeds in umbrellas on high legs. When they mature, cut out the umbrellas, leaving on the heads of garlic hemp height of centimeters to five, so as not to interfere with the plants normally develop further. Garlic umbrella binds and hangs to dry.

The seeds then go for breeding (I forgot to say that my Vanyusha sows my garlic in the fall or spring - it all depends on the weather and free time) and for cooking (unless crushed, of course) all kinds of pickles and borsch.

I can’t imagine my life without garlic. I believe that this is the best preventive medicine for colds in the world. And he raises his mood (at least tones) be healthy: ate a slice in the morning - and as if the batteries were recharged. It is clear that I grow it myself, in my garden. I plant winter garlic on a bed in September.
D In fact, a correctly guessed landing time is a great thing. After all, the sooner you plant, the larger the heads will grow, but if you hurry, the garlic can rise to the snow.
Therefore, I always notice what spring was - early or late. If the second option - it means that the cold will come later than usual, and you can move the landing in October. But in any case, the middle of this month is the deadline. For planting, I choose large, even teeth without damage. Soak them in the warm
a pink solution of potassium permanganate for a couple of hours, and immediately after that I plant it, slightly pressing it into the previously loosened earth, to a depth of about 5 cm (I tried it one time deeper - the roots developed worse). Then I spill the garden well and mulch it with rotted sawdust.
In the spring, friendly shoots appear. When the leaves grow to 10 cm, I do top dressing - 1 tbsp. l (without slide) ammonium nitrate, superphosphate and potassium chloride. Place for planting garlic change in a year. At the end of July, I dig out a choice of heads for food, and at the same time
but I look in what state they are. If everything is fine, slowly begin to clean up for storage. From my experience I will say that if you tighten too much with this case, the heads will begin to crumble onto the teeth, and there will be no crockery.
The brightest signal that the crop is ready and that it does not make sense to keep it in the ground for longer is a lodging of garlic foliage. By the way, I dig it out with a fork to minimize damage to the heads.
During harvesting, I clean the garlic from the ground, wipe it with a damp cloth and add it to dry under a taut awning, spreading it on the sacking. Roots carefully cut with scissors (trying not to touch them with the bottom!) And shorten the stems. I store spring garlic in paper bags, on the bottom of which I pour a thin layer of dry ash.
