Only 5-10% of gardeners growing winter garlic can boast of bulbs weighing 100 g.
Garlic that reaches such weight is considered large. Additional pride comes from the even and aromatic cloves that are perfect for salads and other dishes.
Every gardener can achieve such a yield by following certain rules.
The secret lies in a series of actions that need to be taken when the garlic leaves are already rising above the ground.
Gardeners clear away excess soil from the garlic heads, exposing them by 2-3 cm.
This manipulation does not end here. The next event should take place at the end of June or the beginning of July.
This time, the soil is removed again, but in such a way that the garlic head is half above the ground. Experienced gardeners claim that the results will be noticeable in a week or two. The bulbs will swell and increase in size.
