The most scientific and effective method to prevent garlic germination is low-temperature preservation.
as we all know, garlic is easy to germinate in spring because the temperature is relatively high in spring and everything grows, and garlic is no exception! We only need to change the storage temperature of garlic, and through low-temperature storage, garlic germination can be effectively inhibited.
The refrigerator at home can be used. We can put garlic in a fresh-keeping bag, tie the bag tightly and store it. If the refrigerator at home is small, we can remove the skin of garlic and put it in a glass bottle, which can save a lot of space!
There are other methods:
1. Preservation by drying
After you buy garlic, don't store it directly. We should put the garlic we bought in a sunny place to dry it, so that the excess water in the garlic skin can evaporate and keep the garlic skin dry, which can effectively prevent garlic from sprouting and prolong the preservation time.
2. desiccant preservation method
in the process of storage, garlic is easy to get wet if it is stored in an improper place, and germination is a trivial matter, and it is wasted if it is moldy and deteriorated. Therefore, when preserving garlic, we can use desiccant to extend the preservation time.
Desiccants don't need to be purchased. Desiccants, tea leaves and fried salt in home food can all be used as desiccants, which is simple and convenient, and the most important thing is to save money!
3. Preservation by indigenous methods
When I was in my hometown in the countryside, every household had the habit of planting garlic, so basically there was no need to buy garlic at home, and the garlic I planted was inexhaustible, so I was very good at dealing with the plan to sprout!
The indigenous method of preserving garlic in rural areas is very simple. After garlic is harvested, it is braided together like braiding, and then the water on the surface is dried and hung in a cool and ventilated place. This indigenous method can be kept for a year, and it is very convenient to take as you eat!
