Garlic can be peeled or unpeeled when planting. Usually peeled garlic planted in water or soil germination and growth rate will be faster; and not peeled garlic, planted in water or soil, although its growth rate is very slow, but will improve the germination rate of garlic, so usually do not recommend garlic peeling planting.
Here are the steps to plant garlic:
1, take the appropriate amount of garlic seeds, slightly in the sun, and then peel the garlic, as shown.
2, one by one to peel the garlic seeds, into the box ready to plant garlic, as shown.
3, find a piece of open space hoe hoe, and then use the hoe cradle out of the Foundation, as shown in the picture.
4, and then peeled garlic one by one inserted into the ground consumption, each plant spacing of about 10cm, as shown.
5, and then the garlic next to the soil buried garlic, with a moderate amount of foot on a step, as shown.
6, after a week, the garlic will sprout and grow out, as shown.

Planting Garlic Notes:
1. Season: The best time to plant garlic is in the spring as well as in the fall, according to the temperature of each place as well as the varieties of garlic to decide. It's better to plant early than late, early spring season, or fall sowing time is recommended to be late September to early October each year.
2, for the soil requirements: with rich humus, and fertile, loose air, water retention and drainage performance of the soil is better, so that it is easier to plant a high-quality, high-yield garlic. In addition, because garlic is a shallow rooted crop, so the absorption of fertilizer is weak. Available organic fertilizer-based plus the appropriate amount of compound fertilizer as a base fertilizer.
3, garlic planting density requirements: in the selection of garlic seeds, the quality of the seed cloves as well as the size of the impact of growth, the larger the seed cloves, the stronger the plant growth, the higher the yield. When planting, pay attention to plant density, sowing depth of about 3-4cm, plant spacing of about 15cm, land planting, row spacing of about 20cm.
4, garlic planting temperature management: garlic germination temperature 14 ~ 20 ℃; seedling growth 15 ~ 20 ℃; garlic shoots growth temperature 20 ℃; garlic underground bulb growth temperature 20 ~ 25 ℃. Growth temperature is too high or too low, will affect the growth of garlic underground bulb. The above mentioned is the best suitable temperature, the overall temperature control in 15 ~ 25 ℃ for the best, pay attention to sunscreen in summer and winter attention to heat preservation.
5, garlic planting watering management: garlic drought resistance is strong, the roots of the water absorption capacity is weak, so the seedling period, to keep the planting site soil moist. Can be early or late watering once. The growth period of garlic underground bulbs, water demand is greater, it should be watered frequently, but not too much, to avoid the phenomenon of underground bulb rot. And if the water is too little, the phenomenon of loose garlic cloves will occur.
6, garlic planting fertilizer management: base fertilizer should be good, the early stage can be based on farmyard manure, generally in 300-400 kg per acre; followed by nitrogen fertilizer, about 10kg; followed by phosphorus and potash fertilizer, about 7.5kg. If the underground bulb of garlic grows when the branches and leaves appear yellow, you can properly spray borax solution.
