HOW TO MAKE THE BEST FERTILIZER FOR GARLIC - MY SECRETS

We have been eating young garlic bulbs since the end of May

and certainly at the beginning of June. And in the summer, my garlic sometimes grows the size of a fist and is perfectly stored all winter.

How can such results be achieved? The secret is in the "explosive mixture", invented by me through trial and error

I do not pretend to be a scientific method, but I have been using it for decades - and always an excellent result. I try not to use chemicals.

I PREPARE A "RADING MIXTURE" FOR GARLIC WITH OWN HANDS

"Explosive mixture" - that's what I called my fertilizer for garlic and onions. First of all, I will say that nitrogen gives a great start for a good harvest. But, as a rule, they are fertilized at the beginning of the growing season, and for the growth of bulbs, nitrogen is needed only in combination with other components.

As nitrogen, I use a "green" fertilizer from weeds. I put them in a bucket, better chopped.

I fill a little more than half of the bucket with them, and fill it with water to the top. I let it wander for three days, stirring occasionally. If the weather is cool or it rains, I cover the bucket with a lid.

FOR THE ADDITIVE OF GARLIC - YEAST

On the day I plan to feed, I prepare supplements. The first one is yeast starter. I pour warm water into a half-liter jar and put a bag of dry yeast (11 g) into it, 5 tbsp. spoons of sugar. I mix everything and cover with a cloth. I give you half an hour to get up.

I pour the yeast sourdough into the “green” fertilizer and pour wood ash there (you can use a 0,5-liter jar or more). I mix everything well. "Explosive mixture" is ready!

I FERTILIZE GARLIC ONLY AFTER WATERING

First, I water the garden with garlic (without fanaticism) with plain water. On moist soil, the fertilizer is better absorbed by the roots, and they will not be damaged.

I pour 10 liter of “explosive mixture” into a 1-liter bucket or watering can and fill it with clean water to the top. I water the wet garden with this fertilizer.

FERTILIZING GARLIC - WHEN AND HOW MUCH TO FERTILIZE?

When and how often should the garlic bed be fertilized? I spend the first feeding at the moment when arrows with air bulbs begin to appear. This is a sign that the underground part of the plant is starting to grow. I carry out the second such top dressing exactly two weeks after the first.

"Explosive mixture" is also suitable for feeding onions. But it only needs to be fed once. And also around the time of the formation of seed pods on the onion bed - somewhere in the second half of summer.

CHEAP BUSINESS

You can replace the "green" fertilizer with infusion of mullein or litter, at worst - with a solution of urea. You can take any yeast, and wood ash from under the sauna stove. Fertilizer will turn out to be a penny, and the result is one hundred percent.
