With the approach of autumn in the garden of affairs does not become smaller - and the crop remaining to collect, and to plant coming cold weather to prepare, and take care of winter garlic, if you are, of course, are going to grow.
And, despite the fact that this culture should be planted no sooner than the end of September, when it's already firmly "settle" autumn weather, on the beds should be considered well in advance, that is already right now.
In this article I will discuss the important points which one should pay attention to the process of preparing the seat for winter garlic to the next harvest was large and plentiful.
Why is better to prepare in advance the beds?
It's simple. During these few weeks, until the garlic allocated place will be "empty", will have time to "break up" the soil all fertilizers, and the earth itself a little prosyadet. Because of this planted the seeds will not be much deeper into the layers of the soil, and remain at that depth, which will be planted.
The first step is to decide on the venue for the beds. At all,
It decided to plant garlic where once grew tomatoes, peas, beans, squash, cucumbers and pumpkinSince it will "feel" for such beds themselves best. Here, for example, potatoes and onions as precursors He does not have to be. Yes, it is desirable even from year to year to plant garlic in the same place, however, if there is no other exit, at least after the harvest sown on the bed of green manure.As for fertilizer, then for many years I am preparing a special "vitamins" mixtureWhich is just embedded in a bed in the process of digging.
Preparing her follows: take 10 l humus and carefully interfere with it ash glass, glass of chalk, 1 tbsp. l. superphosphate and 1 tbsp. l. potassium sulfate. It is better to prepare for this action wider capacity, since it will be difficult to achieve uniformity in the bucket. I have enough of this mixture on a bed, measuring 2 square meters. m.
Oh, and one more important thing - if September will stand out month dry and warm, not lazy couple of times to thoroughly moisten the flower bed, so it is important for us to land in it good subsided.
