This time use complex fertilizers with nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium.

You can apply fertilizers either dry or in the form of a solution.

Another simple and effective way to feed is urea. To do this, dilute the product in 10 liters of water.

Then water the soil at the rate of 3 liters of solution per one square meter of soil.

In addition, many experienced gardeners use ammonium nitrate.

In addition, you can sprinkle the beds with ash.

In spring, you can also nourish the soil in the garden with dolomite flour.

If you can’t buy powder, you need to add sand or peat to the soil.

Chicken manure is also a very good fertilizer option for garlic.

This fertilizing is an excellent source of not only nitrogen, but also phosphorus, potassium and other nutrients.

They are essential for the development of strong and healthy plants.
