What and how to feed garlic
Fertilizing will help increase the quantity and quality of the harvest.
In spring, it is best to fertilize garlic using organic means - chicken droppings, blood meal, compost.
Compost is an excellent fertilizer for garlic, as it improves soil nutrition, retains moisture and creates drainage.
If the summer is dry, water the plant every week.
