First, garlic planting time

1. For the north, it is only suitable for planting garlic in spring. Because the temperature in winter in the north is too low, even if garlic is resistant to low temperature, it can't resist the cold in the north.

For the south, garlic can be planted in spring or autumn. Because the winter in the south is relatively not very cold, garlic can still be safely wintered.

Second, the classification of planting methods

Potted plants of most plants can be divided into soil culture and hydroponics, and garlic is no exception. Many people have only seen garlic grown in the field and mistakenly think that it must be cultivated with soil. In fact, this idea is wrong. According to practical experience, hydroponic garlic can also grow well, which shows that garlic has strong environmental adaptability.

Third, the soil culture method

1. Choose a pot suitable for soil culture: the soil pot can be used for soil culture of garlic. Generally, pottery pots are relatively breathable, with air holes at the bottom, and the depth is controlled above 15cm. Try to choose an open flowerpot, which can contain more kind of garlic seeds.

2, choose pot soil: garlic is not very demanding on soil, just use ordinary garden soil or humus soil, and add some fertilizer appropriately, so that garlic will grow faster and better.

3. Planting garlic seeds: choose garlic with big head and good luster, peel off the skin, peel off garlic petals and plant them in the pot soil one by one. Be sure to put the garlic up and show it out of the soil. You can't throw the whole garlic directly into the soil. This lazy practice is not suitable for raising any flowers and plants!

4. Water and fertilizer: Garlic likes cold environment, so it should be placed in a cool and ventilated environment and watered every 4 days. If the temperature is low, you can reduce the number of watering. The fertilizer of garlic is mainly organic fertilizer, and the principle of "thin fertilizer and diligent application" should be mastered.

Four, hydroponics method

1. Choose a pot suitable for hydroponics: try to use transparent glass bottles or open porcelain pots. The advantage of hydroponics is that you can observe the growth of roots, so glass bottles are the most suitable.

2. Choose garlic seeds and put them in the pot: the requirements of garlic seeds are similar to those of soil culture. Garlic with big head and intact appearance is easy to feed. If garlic has sprouted tender new buds, it is more suitable for hydroponics.

3, pour the right amount of water: pour the water on the bottom of garlic seeds to absorb water, and put the garlic tip up, which is the part where garlic seedlings will grow in the future.

4. change water and add water: in fact, it is ok to add water without changing water. Water culture consumes more water than soil culture, and water should be replenished every two days. After the roots grow, you can absorb water by yourself, so you don't have to be so diligent when adding water.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) matters needing attention

Garlic seedlings usually grow well for one to two months. Remember to pick the harvest in time. Those who like to eat tender seedlings can pinch them earlier. Pinch the seedlings more than 2cm away from the roots and let the garlic seedlings take new ones.
